SCHEDULE 2 — A1 AND A2 VALUES FOR UNSPECIFIED RADIONUCLIDES

In the calculations of A₁ and A₂ for a radionuclide not in Table I of Schedule 1, a single radioactive decay chain in which the radionuclides are present in their naturally occurring proportions and in which no daughter nuclide has a half-life either longer than 10 days or longer than that of the parent nuclide shall be considered as a single radionuclide, and the activity to be taken into account and the A₁ or A₂ value to be applied must be those corresponding to the parent nuclide of that chain. In the case of radioactive decay chains in which any daughter nuclide has a half-life either longer than 10 days or greater than that of the parent nuclide, the parent and such daughter nuclides must be considered as mixtures of different nuclides.
