Health Effects of Radiological Weapons,iation sickness, radiation burns, and death in the short term; they also worry about birth defects and cancer in the long term. Because the great majority of people do not understand the actual health effects associated with radiation exposure, there can be a tendency to attribute to radiation a greater deadliness than is actually the case.

Societal Impact of a Radiological Attack,ians as well), contaminated areas will likely be off-limits until they can be decontaminated and access restored, and there will be a tremendous economic impact at all levels of society from individuals through the local and national governments.

Difficulties of Radiological and Nuclear Interdiction,for results to come in. Radioactive sources can be shielded, and even sources of moderate activity will have a detection radius that represents only a tiny fraction of the area of a major city or an area to be searched.

Physical Effects of Radiological Weapons,On March 11, 2001 a portion of the floor of the Pacific Ocean was ripped by one of the largest earthquakes ever recorded. The ensuing tsunami hammered the Japanese coastline, obliterating neighborhoods and industrial districts, and killing over 15,000 people who drowned, were buried by sediments, or were swept out to sea.

Developing a Radiological and Nuclear Interdiction Network,Unlike biological agents, chemicals, and explosives, radiation can be detected at a distance; a high-activity radioactive source can be detected at a distance of a kilometer or more using hand-held instruments and to distances of more than 2?km with large-volume scintillation detectors.

Initial Emergency Response Efforts,The initial moments of any emergency are rushed, confusing, and essential; how these moments are handled can set the stage for how the emergency itself will be handled, and mistakes or oversights at this early stage can escalate and propagate forward if they are not recognized or corrected.
