I need to do an assignment on a radioisotope used industry, and i was wondering if commercial applications count.
Tritium (the one i'm doing) is used in glowing watch dials, studies of water movement and nuclear weaponry. Do these uses count as industrial uses?

yeh it would count, but i'd make sure with ur teacher just incase.... if u get to choose the isotope, why make life hard for yourself? strontium-90 and cobalt-60 are well known and there is a plethora of info in all good textbooks and on the net
