Research Summary
Cobalt-60, also known as Co-60, is a radioactive isotope of cobalt with the symbol ^60Co. It is produced through the neutron activation of natural cobalt-59 in nuclear reactors or particle accelerators. Cobalt-60 is widely used in various applications, including industrial radiography, radiation therapy for cancer treatment, and gamma irradiation for sterilization of medical equipment and food products. In radiation therapy, cobalt-60 is encapsulated in a medical device known as a teletherapy machine or "cobalt bomb," which emits high-energy gamma rays to target and destroy cancerous cells. It is also used for measuring and calibrating radiation doses in medical and industrial settings. Despite its beneficial applications, cobalt-60 poses significant health and safety hazards due to its radioactivity, requiring strict regulatory controls and safety measures during handling and storage.
