English term or phrase: fallout
Definition from European Nuclear Society:
Radioactive material which falls back to the earth after the release into the atmosphere (e.g. by nuclear weapon tests, accidents). The fallout occurs in two forms: the close fallout consists of heavy particles which fall to the ground within some days near the place of release and in an area which, depending on the weather conditions, may reach up to several hundred kilometres in the wind direction. The world-wide fallout consists of lighter particles reaching higher atmospheric layers and distributed over a wide part of the earth because of atmospheric currents.

Example sentence(s):
  • Fallout creates large areas of contamination and the ionizing radiation coming off the fallout, which can damage tissues and penetrate through thin walls and glass US Department of Health & Human Services
  • The chemical properties of the different elements in the fallout will control the rate at which they are deposited on the ground. The less volatile elements will deposit first. Wikipedia
  • Weather conditions can affect fallout immensely. Particularly rainfall can "rain out" fallout to create very intense localized concentrations. University of Michigan

padavine


Definition from Wikipedia:
Rezultat eksplozije nuklearne bombe ili nekog drugog nuklearnog uređaja, kada se u atmosferu raspršuju čestice, delići i otpad, uopšte, kontaminirani fisionim zračenjem, gde se zadržavaju određeno vreme, a potom se uglavnom vraćaju na površinu zemlje u vidu padavina.

Example sentence(s):
  • Nuklearne padavine (engl. Nuclear fallout) nastaju prilikom nuklearne eksplozije. - Wikipedia  
  • Dok padaju nuklearne padavine zrače ali gube na snazi srazmerno sa vremenom jer se energija troši. - Wikipedia

radioaktivne padavine


Definition from Udruženje građana "LEEI Stari Begej- C:
Radioaktivne padavine - radioaktivna prašina koja pada na Zemlju posle nuklearnih eksplozija.

Example sentence(s):
  • Када радиоактивне падавине падну на земљу оне додатно губе на снази и своју радијацију одају површини на коју су пале. - serbian wikipedia  
  • Radioaktivno_delovanje atomske bombe se deli na 2 faze. Primarna faza traje od trenutka eksplozije pa sve do oko sekundu nakon eksplozije. Tokom ove faze emituje se gama zracenje. Sekundarna faza pocinje jednu sekundu nakon eksplozije i traje vise godina. Ovde susrecemo alfa, beta i gama zracenje. Beta zracenje je najizrazenije. Prilikom eksplozije atomske bombe nastaje 300-400 razlicitih radionuklida, otprilike 38 elemenata, i oni predstavljaju najvecu opasnost od sekundarnog zracenja. Nakon eksplozije stvara se atomska pecurka koja biva nosena vazdusnim strujama i nastaju radioaktivni oblaci. Kada cestice iz tog oblaka pocnu padati na zemlju onda su to radioaktivne padavine. - Krstarica - Forum
