In response, government officials designated a wider zone, extending to a radius of 30 km around the plant, within which residents were asked to remain indoors.
A series of silicon tracking layers, consisting of silicon pixel detectors near the beam and silicon strips farther out, organized in concentric cylinders around the beam, extending to a radius of 1.1 m and terminated on each end by planar detectors (disks) perpendicular to the beam, measures the momentum, angles, and position of charged particles emerging from the collisions.
(In actuality, the explosion punched a second hole in the containment vessel; the first hole had been created earlier by melted nuclear material that passed through the bottom of the vessel). In response, government officials designated a wider zone, extending to a radius of 30 km around the plant, within which residents were asked to remain indoors.
Our simulations showed that at the end of the 3-h injection, the rupture zone associated with tensile and shear failure extended to a maximum radius of about 200 m from the injection well.
The New Haven Study Area is centered in the City of New Haven, Connecticut (population ~ 127,000), and extends to a 20-km radius, encompassing 318 census block groups in New Haven County with an estimated population in 2007 of more than 367,000 people.
In fact, the radius of Mercury's core extends to an astounding 83% of the planetary radius, a situation that is unmatched in the solar system, he says.
Indonesia's disaster mitigation agency (BNPB) has strongly urged people to immediately leave the designated exclusion zone, which has been extended to an 8-10km radius of the volcano.
The hydrogen exosphere extends to a distance RH=3.1 RJ, much larger than the planetary radius of 1.32 RJ.
Explanation: If we assume conservatively that a cluster extends out to a radius of 1 Mpc, then it has a diameter of 2 Mpc, or 6 million light years.
