ABSTRACT: The
article presents two opposing views on the origin of natural radioactive
elements. According to a view based on the Big Bang Theory, the elements found
on Earth were formed by the process of primary nucleosyntase 13.8 billion years
ago, with the exception of uranium and other heavy elements that were formed
billions of years later under stellar conditions. It follows from this view
that throughout the existence of the earth, the global amount of uranium and
other primary radionuclides is reduced as a result of natural decay. The
reasoning of the proponents of the BB theory is as follows: if the global
radioactivity decreases, the problem of the threat decreases and one only needs
to get used to the newly discovered natural phenomenon. There are even official
regulations that exclude ionizing radiation from radon in the calculation of
the limit dose. The Primary Forces of Nature theory presents a completely
different view. Considering the analogous influence of gravity on the formation
of the globs of the solar system, the logical explanation of the phenomena of
geological activity are thermonuclear processes, such as on the sun. Hence the
conclusion that the elements chemical are now created in the core of the Earth
in the process of thermonuclear synthesis. The problem is serious because there
is an accelerated growth of new igneous matter containing the created elements,
and the ionizing radiation of natural radionuclides is the main factor
responsible for the radioactivity level of the human environment.
