In an instant he and two co-workers were hit by a wave of intense radiation.
The inner radiation belt, like it says on the tin, comprises quite a bit of intense radiation.

"Using ultra-short light pulses gives us the ability to focus in a well confined region and the ability for intense radiation, " said Parigger.

When the plasmasphere gets hit, some of the plasma dissipates, making it smaller, but that dissipation prevents too much intense radiation from hitting the inner belt.

"The closer it gets, the more intense the radiation and the more elements will be melted, " he said.
However, such instruments are blinded by the intense infrared radiation emitted by flames, which overwhelm the sensitive detectors and limit their use in the field.

Moreover iron, which gives the planet its characteristic hue, would naturally cling to the varnish, protecting interior organisms from the harmful effects of intense ultraviolet radiation from the sun.
Certain elements on the surface emitted X-rays when the sun zapped Eros with an intense burst of radiation for 30 minutes on May 4.
By interplanetary space, we are talking about an environment in which space radiation is much more intense than it is in LEO, because above Earth orbit is the geomagnetosphere, the Van Allen belts, which trap charged particle radiation coming from deep space.
The ponds cool the fuel - which generates intense heat - and provide shielding from radiation.
They cool the fuel - which generates intense heat - and provide shielding from radiation.
Especially intense while I was undergoing chemo and radiation after my mastectomy.
Radiation from the flare was so intense it saturated the X-ray detectors on two spacecraft used by the U.S. government to determine the strength of the solar blasts.
Its Burst Alert Telescope is set up to catch the intense but fleeting flash of very high-energy gamma radiation that initially signals a GRB event.
Professor Joe Sedat says that even though the radiation dose may be low, it may be intense where it hits certain parts of the body like the cornea, the testicles or the skin.
