As air movement increases, decay products will plate out on walls and other surfaces, including fans, thereby reducing airborne decay product concentrations.
The Exponential Decay Calculator is used to solve exponential decay problems.
Sometimes the product of that nuclear decay is unstable itself and undergoes nuclear decay, too.
However, decay is soft, and clinically speaking, there is no reversal of decay.
