There are different kinds, or isotopes, of uranium, and the type used in nuclear power plants is called uranium-235, because these atoms are easiest to split in two.
铀有许多不同的种类，或称同位素，而在核电站中所使用的是铀235这一类，因为这些的原子最容易一分为二。
Deep underneath your feet is a hellish stone soup, kept hot by a torrent of radiation from poisonous isotopes of uranium, thorium and potassium in the earth's superheated mantle.
我们脚下深处是地狱般的岩石汤，在温度非常高的地球地幔中，有毒的铀、钍和钾元素的同位素释放出的辐射流不断地对这些岩石汤进行加热，使其保持高温。
The uranium or plutonium isotopes are referred to as "fissile," which means we can use them to induce fission by bombarding them with free neutrons.
铀或钚的同位素被称为裂变材料，即我们可以利用自由中子去轰击它们来产生裂变反应。
In particular, prompt action is needed on implementing the plan to use Iran's own low-enriched uranium to refuel the Tehran research reactor, which is used to produce medical isotopes.
尤其必须立即采取行动，执行有关用伊朗自己提炼的低浓度浓缩铀为德黑兰作研究用的反应堆提供燃料的计划——该反应堆用于生产医用同位素。
However, some of the minerals contain xenon isotopes unlike those usually produced by radioactive decay of uranium.
然而，有些含氙同位素的矿物并非如此，是由铀的放射性衰变产生的。
"The uranium or plutonium isotopes are referred to as" fissile, "which means we can use them to induce fission by bombarding them with free neutrons."
铀或钚的同位素被称为裂变材料，即我们可以利用自由中子去轰击它们来产生裂变反应。
The measurement of the decay of radioactive isotopes, especially uranium, strontium, rubidium, argon and carbon, has allowed geologists to more precisely determine the age of rock formations.
对放射性同位素衰变的测量，尤其是铀、锶、铷、氩和碳，可允许地质学家更精确地确定岩层的年龄。
Data from the analytical results show that the oxygen isotopes in analysed uranium oxides is mostly light oxygen.
实验分析的数据首次表明：铀氧化物中的氧同位素主要是富轻氧的。
Its stable isotopes are all end products of radioactive decay of uranium and other heavy elements.

The Earth has cooled since its formation, yet the decay of radiogenic isotopes, and in particular uranium, thorium and potassium, in the planet's interior provides a continuing heat source.
研究人员发现，在地球传送到大气的热流中，地球内部放射性同位素衰变所产生的热量占了其中一半。
The prime example is the element uranium (U), which occurs naturally as two isotopes-the lighter, fissionable U-235 and the heavier, non-fissionable U-238.
铀（U）元素就是一个很好的例子。天然铀有两种同位素；较轻的负235可以裂变，较重的铀238则不会裂变。
