4.Radioactive nuclides are solidified at crystal lattice as one part of crystalloid by zirconolite-rich synroc, which greatly enhances the long-term safety of radioactive waste disposing.
6.A sophisticated dating technique, called cosmogenic nuclide dating, has upended previous estimates—and, with that, is rewriting an important chapter in the story of human evolution.
7.When a breccia-forming object falls into a cave, it finds itself shielded from cosmic rays, and the steady decay of its existing cosmogenic nuclides can be used to determine how long ago it fell in.
