	Radiological warfare - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Radiological warfare is any form of warfare involving deliberate radiation poisoning, without relying on nuclear fission or nuclear fusion.
		Radiological weapons are normally considered weapons of mass destruction, and are very commonly equated with a radiological bomb often mis-called a "dirty bomb" (which refers to a nuclear weapon with a radiological side effect).
		Rather, radiological warfare would be of vastly more use to terrorists spreading or intensifying fear, uncertainty and doubt.

	Radiological weapon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A radiological weapon (or radiological dispersion device, RDD) is any weapon that is designed to spread radioactive material with the intent to kill, and cause disruption by psychologically and financially impacting a city.
		Radiological weapons are widely considered to be militarily useless for a state-sponsored army and are not believed to have been deployed by any military forces.
		Means of radiological warfare that do not rely on any specific weapon, but rather on spreading radioactive contamination via a food chain or water table, seem to be more effective in some ways, but share many of the same problems as chemical warfare.

		Radiological safety, the technical focus of Health Physics, is the practice of protecting mankind and the environment from the potentially harmful effects of ionizing radiation.
		A system of radiological protection, developed through international collaboration and consensus, serves as the basis for radiation protection regulations in the United States for occupational and environmental exposures.
		In addition, notable staff members are active in national and international radiological protection activities, and are recognized as among the top practitioners in their field.

	NTI: Radiological Terrorism Tutorial: Terrorists and Radiological Terrorism
		Radiological terrorism is a more attractive option than chemical, biological, or nuclear terrorism because of the relative ease with which a radiological weapon can be made and used.
		Radiological terrorism, on the other hand, involves using a radioactive source by itself, packaging radioactive material with a conventional bomb and exploding it in a public area, or attacking an already existing nuclear facility.
		Given the relative ease with which a radiological weapon can be made and used, terrorist groups that lack a high level of technical and scientific expertise might find this type of radiological terrorism to be an attractive option.

	radiological
		In the case of a radiological incident, the onset of symptoms requires days to weeks and there typically will be no characteristic signatures.
		Radiological materials are not recognizable by the senses and are colorless and odorless.
		Because of the delayed onset of symptoms in a radiological incident, the affected area may be greater as a result of the movement of contaminated people.

	Radiological Weapons - Iraq Special Weapons
		Around the end of 1987, the Military Industrialization Corporation gave orders to the Nuclear Research Centre at Tuwaitha to explore radiological weapons as a means of "area denial" to be used in the final stages of the Iran/Iraq war.
		The leadership did not pursue the option of the radiological weapon and the project was shelved.
		However, it was suggested by Iraq's Air Force that a study should be conducted to consider the possibility of reducing the weight of the bomb (the total weight of the Qa-Qa-28 bomb was 1,400 kilograms).
