radiation sickness collapse: syndrome resulting from exposure to ionizing radiation (e.g., exposure to radioactive chemicals or to nuclear explosions); low doses cause diarrhea and nausea and vomiting and sometimes loss of hair; greater exposure can cause sterility and cataracts and some forms of cancer and other diseases; severe exposure can cause death within hours; "he was suffering from radiation"

weightlessness collapse

radiologist collapse: a medical specialist who uses radioactive substances and X-rays in the treatment of disease

heating collapse: the process of becoming warmer; a rising temperature

asteroid collapse: any of numerous small celestial bodies composed of rock and metal that move around the sun (mainly between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter); shaped like a star

propagation collapse: the spreading of something (a belief or practice) into new regions; the movement of a wave through a medium

resonance collapse: the quality imparted to voiced speech sounds by the action of the resonating chambers of the throat and mouth and nasal cavities; a vibration of large amplitude produced by a relatively small vibration near the same frequency of vibration as the natural frequency of the resonating system; an excited state of a stable particle causing a sharp maximum in the probability of absorption of electromagnetic radiation

radio wave collapse: an electromagnetic wave with a wavelength between 0.5 cm to 30,000 m

wavelength collapse: the distance (measured in the direction of propagation) between two points in the same phase in consecutive cycles of a wave; a shared orientation leading to mutual understanding; "they are on the same wavelength"

dispersal collapse

sound wave collapse: (acoustics) a wave that transmits sound

radionics collapse

target collapse: sports equipment consisting of an object set up for a marksman or archer to aim at; a reference point to shoot at; "his arrow hit the mark"; the location of the target that is to be hit; intend (something) to move towards a certain goal; "He aimed his fists towards his opponent's face"; "criticism directed at her superior"; "direct your anger towards others, not towards yourself"
