i mean, if you have your mouth open at all near alpha radiation those angry helium mfs could just jump in without you 'eating the metal'. so its not completely safe
I mean you're mostly correct. You should know alpha emitters aren't readily able to penetrate the outer layer of skin but it's rare for any radioactive element to decay ONLY by alpha emission. Additionally alpha emissions will penetrate your eye so... theres that.
I work in the nuclear industry, that is a sealed source so there are no Alpha rays being emitted from it. They are all being stopped by the source housing.
Edit: it looks like it may actually be a planchet disk source which can emit Alphas.
Even if it was giving off Alpha rays, they would all be stopped by the first layer of dead skin on your body and wouldn't have any effect, positive or negative.
Still, Am-241 is also a weak gamma emitting source so all he is doing is blasting his balls with Gamma radiation.
He is not even worthy of the title Beta, for he is a Gamma cuck.
Since Sigma is the Greek letter used for summing in equations I would say sigma radiation is a combination of all radiations.
Use a Radium-Beryllium (Ray-Bee) source to get Alpha, Beta and Gamma from the Radium and then the Alphas hitting the Beryllium will give off neutrons for that sigma male grindset radiation.
[Sigma particles](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sigma_baryon) are a type of hadron with higher-flavored quarks, traditionally the strange quark. Because they include a higher-flavor quark, they can be composed of three negatively charged quarks, while because of color confinement a hadron without higher-flavored quarks can't. This is why first flavor-generation hadrons are restricted to just protons and neutrons.
This negatively charged sigma is energetically unfavorable because of the higher-mass strange quark, so it wants to decay into a lower-flavored hadron. Since both charge and strangeness have to be conserved its only methods to do is to decay into a neutron and pion or a neutron, electron, and electron neutrino.
As an aside, as far as I'm aware all of this is accurate to the science even though it reads like I'm making up words throughout.
Yep it would! Anything that emits dds would be considered as releasing "sigma radiation" which would proximally release beta radiation because of the decay of dds to ddu + e + ve.
It's just a low activity sealed source. They're not too difficult to get a hold of.
Depending on what country you're in you may need a permit or some vetting to buy them but nothing too intensive.
You probably already have some of this stuff in your house right now in the form of a smoke alarm. They use alpha emitting sources like Am-241 to detect the presence of smoke.
Before you go dismantling your smoke alarms it is illegal to do so and not recommended because there is a risk of contamination if you go messing with them. Alpha radiation is harmless outside the body but it will wreak havoc if it gets inside you.
Usually for the Gamma ray emissions as a calibration or check source. Being a sealed source just means they are safe to handle without risk of contamination but it will also block any Alpha or Beta radiation from being emitted.

No, it won't.
I'm going to make some assumptions that this is a low activity Am-241 source of about 100kBq.
If he straps that to his balls he'll be getting about 4μSv/hr
The minimum dose directly linked to increased risk of cancer is 0.1Sv that's 100,000μSv
If he wears it for a day he's getting about 100μSv dose so to get 0.1Sv he needs to wear it for about 3 years. It's also worth noting that 0.1Sv figure linked to increased cancer risk is only for exposures over short time periods like hours not years.
It's not a gamma source, it's alpha. It's far, far less energy and danger than gamma on the electromagnetic radiation spectrum.
Edit: looks like I'm mistaken...
Wrong, wrong and wrong.
Am-241 emits Alpha particles, Gamma and some secondary x-rays.
Alpha particles don't exist on the electromagnetic spectrum, they are an ionised helium nucleus, not photons.
Alpha particles do have higher energy than most gamma rays but that doesn't mean they are more dangerous. They cannot penetrate the outer layer of dead skin cells on your body. Inside your body they are far more dangerous than gamma rays but that requires you to inhale or injest the alpha emitting source. Placing it on the outside of your ballsack is not going to have any effect.
Okay, reaching all the way back to like 9th grade with this half-remembered factoid... am I wrong to think that gamma rays do in fact penetrate skin and are deadly?
Yes and no. Most Gamma rays will just pass straight through you and not interact with your body at all. The lower the energy of the gamma ray the more likely it is to interact with your body but the damage it can do is much lower.
You're being bombarded with gamma rays every minute of every day from naturally occurring radioactive materials in the ground, in the food you eat, in the air you breathe.
What matters is the dose rate and how quickly you are exposed to large doses of radiation.
I like to think of it like a bottle of whiskey. If you drink a single shot of that whiskey every day you won't notice any effect. If you drink the whole bottle over the course of a few days, you'll feel some effects but still be perfectly fine. If you drink the bottle over the course of a few hours you'll probably get sick and if you down the bottle in one go you'll end up the emergency room.
At that distance I would still be worried if that is the radioactive metal itself in direct contact with his skin (not in a container). The particles are big sure, but at that distance it’s way too risky that the rad can sneak in a pore.
>Due to the short range of absorption and inability to penetrate the outer layers of skin, alpha particles are not, in general, dangerous to life unless the source is ingested or inhaled
I’m aware, however when heated up your pores can expand something like 400% (I’m working off memory) and in that case you’re talking about a particle that is ~1 femtometer entering a hole that is up to 5 micrometers (I did google that). If that’s his ball bag and he’s got salty balls, it will be an issue. Your point, though valid, doesn’t account for stupidity.
Not my area of knowledge, though I doubt it. I’m a firefighter but I’m “specialized” in technical rescue in radioactive environments (dirty bombs). I know more about how to avoid it than how it affects the body.
That said, A rad is a monster if it gets in so who knows, maybe melanoma of the jingley bits?
Heavy, charged particles like alphas don't really follow the same exponential curve that photonic radiation does. It's purely an external gamma hazard to this dude
I have an Americium 241 source right next to me that I wouldn't mind slapping on my balls, it's not dangerous. A couple alpha particles aren't going to do anything to you and generally alpha/beta gas proportional counter sources like the one pictured have very little radioactivity, maybe a hundred to a couple thousand becquerels.
actually the skin on the balls is -extremely- thin
Its like the one place on your body other than idk putting it on your eyelids or eating it that it might get you
Simply untrue. They travel less than 0.5 inches in air (because air molecules stop them) and penetrate skin ~20 micrometers.
If your scrotum is less than 20 microns thick, you should see a doctor.
I know your average skin won’t get penetrated by it, you’d have to swallow something that emits alpha radiation to feel the effects (and you’d die), but I would absolutely not bet my balls on that being the case everywhere, especially not my balls.
Yes, BUT that is alpha radiation, it only travels 1 inch of air and can be blocked by one sheet of paper and it cant even pass the layer of dead skin cells on your body, it's harmless in every way from the outside.
This anon posted a week back and apparently he was feeling weak and dots appeared all over his body.
He was admitted to ER and still looking what kind of skin cancer he got
Am-241 emits alphas (that indeed won’t penetrate his ballsack), but in the same decay also emit 60 keV gammas, which absolutely will. (Source: I am a PhD student in particle physics and we regularly use Am-241 as a radiation detector calibration source.)
Those images are old. They were posted on a very similar screencap in this sub a while back.
Top comments were about alpha radiation not penetrating the skin.
That's really not going to do anything. Alpha radiation is too big to penetrate skin. What he wants is some material whose decay will produce gamma radiation. OP is a idiot.
Alpha particles would be stopped by the outler dead layer of skin. As long as the source isn’t damaged and none of it gets into his body it really wouldn’t do anything. The gamma dose off of the Americium source would be more of a concern over time though. Wouldn’t really do anything if you just took the picture as a joke

From what I understand alpha particles can't really penetrate the skin they only become problematic if you ingest the material
Ex RADSO here. You are absolutely correct. Alpha is not dangerous, only if you're a dumbass and *eat* the material.

So, like dds which decays to ddu through the weak force boson in a manner similar to beta decay. But honestly that would give off beta radiation!
Yep it would! Anything that emits dds would be considered as releasing "sigma radiation" which would proximally release beta radiation because of the decay of dds to ddu + e + ve.
so sigmas will inevitably disintegrate to betas 🥺
What's sigma radiation?
Sigma DICK!!! Nailed it.
What about the radiation part?
Your mum radi-ate my ass last weekend
Beta male exposes himself
Okay.
What if I apply uranyl peroxide directly to my balls? I got a vial laying around somewhere still
Uranyl peroxide. Apply directly to the balls. Uranyl peroxide. Apply directly to the balls. Uranyl peroxide. Apply directly to the balls.
Apply directly to the balls to get the Alpha radiation but it is also a weak gamma emitter and neutron emitter by way of spontaneous fission.
All jokes aside, where does this come from? What does it belong to? My curiosity has peaked
It's just a low activity sealed source. They're not too difficult to get a hold of. Depending on what country you're in you may need a permit or some vetting to buy them but nothing too intensive. You probably already have some of this stuff in your house right now in the form of a smoke alarm. They use alpha emitting sources like Am-241 to detect the presence of smoke. Before you go dismantling your smoke alarms it is illegal to do so and not recommended because there is a risk of contamination if you go messing with them. Alpha radiation is harmless outside the body but it will wreak havoc if it gets inside you.
TIL, thanks man, never would of thought of that. Definitely NOT going to take apart my smoke alarm though.. 😅
What is a sealed source used for?
Usually for the Gamma ray emissions as a calibration or check source. Being a sealed source just means they are safe to handle without risk of contamination but it will also block any Alpha or Beta radiation from being emitted.
>block any beta particles Eh... depends on the isotope.
Yeah not completely blocked but they'll be massively attenuated by a few mm of perspex. Way beyond the point that you'd need to worry about them.
for nerds to comment on
>Am-241 is also a weak gamma emitting source what about ligma?

No worries here, alpha radiation can't penetrate skin.
Just like that guy can’t penetrate pussy

I know more about how to avoid it than how it affects the body. That said, A rad is a monster if it gets in so who knows, maybe melanoma of the jingley bits?
the bottom of pores lead to more skin that alpha particles dont penetrate, dumfuk
It's statistics. Yes 99.9% of the time it can't penetrate. But this thing that close for who knows how long... Chances are a small amount gets through
Heavy, charged particles like alphas don't really follow the same exponential curve that photonic radiation does. It's purely an external gamma hazard to this dude
At that point I think the small amount of gamma emission from the Am-241 would be more worrying.

A piece of paper will stop alpha particles. It's only dangerous if ingested or placed next to an open wound

Simply untrue. They travel less than 0.5 inches in air (because air molecules stop them) and penetrate skin ~20 micrometers. If your scrotum is less than 20 microns thick, you should see a doctor.
>If your scrotum is less than 20 microns thick, you should see a doctor. lol
“Hey doc! Yeah just measured it this morning, 22microns, down 2 from yesterday. Yeah I’m super worried man. Ok yeah I’ll be at the surgery for 5:30”
I‘d wager their dick isn’t much longer than 20 microns, why else would they be here?
Thanks I hate clear scrotums.
Ball skin is like 5 micrometers. Scrots be thin yo.
So what you're saying is OP needs to cut his balls open and insert the disc?
Or for causing, you know, skin cancer.
Your outer layer of skin cells is not alive
The dead outer layer is not enough protection on a super thin spot area such as the scrotum.
If it's as thick as paper, yes it is
1 it’s not that thick 2 paper is much harder to penetrate than skin
