Radiobiology Cell Survival
The loss of proliferative potential of a cell is often equated to cell kill, and many studies of the cellular effects of radiation (both ionising and non-ionising) utilise this definition of cell kill to define cell survival. To measure cell survival using this paradigm, a cell culture that has been exposed to a known dose of radiation is cultured and, at a predefined time post irradiation, the...
متن کاملIssues in a SYSTEM approach to radiobiology
After several decades of a profoundly reductionist approach to biology the research community is now being encouraged to be more “integrative” and this includes the recommendation to adopt “a systems biology” approach. I very much endorse this advice depending on what is meant by the term “systems biology”. So instead I use the term “systems approach” for this presentation. I will try and demon...
متن کاملAstrophysical thermonuclear functions for Boltzmann-Gibbs statistics and Tsallis statistics
One of the first applications of Gamow’s theory of quantum mechanical potential barrier penetration to other than his analysis of alpha radioactivity was in the field of thermonuclear astrophysics [1,2]. Atkinson and Houtermans proposed that the source of energy released by stars lay in thermonuclear reactions taking place near their centres where the motion of nuclei was supposed to be in ther...
متن کاملThe standard map: From Boltzmann-Gibbs statistics to Tsallis statistics
As well known, Boltzmann-Gibbs statistics is the correct way of thermostatistically approaching ergodic systems. On the other hand, nontrivial ergodicity breakdown and strong correlations typically drag the system into out-of-equilibrium states where Boltzmann-Gibbs statistics fails. For a wide class of such systems, it has been shown in recent years that the correct approach is to use Tsallis ...
متن کاملA Qualitative Approach towards Implementation of Urban Sustainability in Tehran
Sustainability as a predominant paradigm of 21st century adopted as the best approach to tackle the issues which threat the environment and people’s well-being. As cities in the world are places in which most of the population in the world settles, the best way of ensuring sustainability would be by observing a set of rules and regulations. There are various sets of urban regulations, rating sy...
