Xenon reaches critical temperature, which makes the liquid phase "disappear into thin air" with visible phenomenon of critical opalescence (fog).

![eating radioactive apples from chernobyl? perfectly fine! [gamma spectroscopy]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/j6mreZ98_Ug/hqdefault.jpg "eating radioactive apples from chernobyl? perfectly fine! [gamma spectroscopy]
qualitative and quantitative analysis of apples from chernobyl, my urine after eating those apples, german / bavarian mushrooms picked in the forest, and chernobyl moss growing near the apple tree.
if you dont have the patience to watch the entire video, here are the results:
apple from pripyat, 4km from chernobyl npp: ~39 Bq/kg Cs-137
my urine, 1 liter worth of morning urine: ~0.15 Bq/l Cs-137
german mushrooms from the forest: ~400 Bq/kg Cs-137
moss from near the apple tree in pripyat: 490000 Bq/kg Cs-137
conclusion: eating the moss - if it was edible - from near chernobyl would be insane in regard to the Cs-137 content. however, the underground networks of mushrooms also concentrate Cs-137 to a much greater extent than an apple tree does; thus, eating an apple from near the nuclear power plant gives you only roughly a tenth of the dose that the same amount of these particular mushrooms from germany would. if you were to consume german boar meat - wild boar consume those mushrooms, concentrating the Cs-137 in their muscles - you may be getting even more of a Cs-137 exposure!
thus, the apples from pripyat are the safest food source shown and analysed in this video... did you expect that?")

i filmed multiple radioactive sources (see video for details) with my webcamera. i took the camera apart to expose the CCD, removing the glass that covers it - thus allowing even the alpha particles to strike the photo chip... with outstanding results!")
