* ArtisticLicenseNuclearPhysics -- Covers most ArtisticLicense examples having to do with radiation.
** GoingCritical -- Nuclear meltdown = explosion.
** InstantCooldown -- Nuclear reactors/bombs return immediately to normal conditions once explosion is averted.
* DirtyBomb -- A non-nuclear weapon is laced with radiation.
* {{EMP}} -- A weapon which uses ionizing radiation to disable electronics.
* FantasticRadiationShielding -- A fictional means of deflecting radiation.
* HiroshimaAsAUnitOfMeasure -- Radiation levels are typically compared to those released by the [[UsefulNotes/AtomicBombingsOfHiroshimaAndNagasaki bomb dropped on Hiroshima]]. (Also covers other comparisons.)
* ILoveNuclearPower -- Radiation gives you superhuman abilities.
* NuclearNasty -- Radiation creates terrifying monsters.
* RadiationImmuneMutants -- Once you've been exposed to enough radiation, it can't hurt you anymore.
* SicklyGreenGlow -- Radioactive materials glow green.
!!Often associated with radiation:
* AppliedPhlebotinum -- Radiation is a common choice of technical-sounding phlebotinum.
** PhlebotinumDuJour -- A particularly popular choice in the '50s and '60s, as well as immediately after its discovery in the late 1800s.
** ToxicPhlebotinum -- As in real life, it's often dangerous as well as useful.
* ContainmentClothing -- A radioactive character wears gear to protect others.
* ContaminationSituation -- Radiation exposure leads to CharacterDevelopment.
* DecontaminationChamber -- A checkpoint room sometimes used for eliminating radioactive contamination.
* FalloutShelterFail -- A bunker (often) intended to keep out radiation . . . doesn't.
* FantasyMetals -- Fictional metals are sometimes radioactive.
* PostApocalypticGasMask -- Gas masks are frequently worn in radioactive post-apocalyptic landscapes.

* PhlebotinumHandlingEquipment -- Equipment designed to safely handle dangerous (sometimes radioactive) materials.
* PoisonousPerson -- People who have been exposed to high levels of radiation are often portrayed as becoming radioactive themselves.
* PollutedWasteland -- Radiation is often one of the dangers in these landscapes.
* PowerSource -- As in real life, radiation in fiction is often used as an energy source.
** PerilousPowerSource -- It is also portrayed as a dangerous phenomenon.
* SensorSuspense -- Since radiation is usually invisible, the sound of a Geiger counter or similar instrument is frequently used to indicate its presence.
* SterilityPlague -- Radiation is known to interfere with reproduction in real animals, and it is sometimes the cause of these in fiction.
* SuperpowerMeltdown -- When someone loses control of their powers, the equivalent of a nuclear explosion results.
* ToxicInc -- A company that dumps large amount of radioactive waste.
