The 289 area code was created as an area code overlay for the Mississauga (Streetsville) area. Unlike the previous solutions, this process did not require the place to be geographically separated by different area codes.
Ionizing radiation is a term used for radiation whose quanta have energy to directly or indirectly ionize (one or more electrons are released from the atom of the given substance) molecules or atoms while passing through matter, hence the name ionizing radiation.
Exposure from terrestrial radiation. The composition of the earth's crust is a major source of natural radiation. The main contributors are natural deposits of uranium, potassium and thorium which, in the process of natural decay, will release small amounts of ionizing radiation.-rays: X-rays are a form of radiation similar to gamma radiation but they are produced mainly by artificial means rather than from radioactive substances. Neutron radiation: Neutron radiation occurs when neutrons are ejected from the nucleus by nuclear fission and other processes.
