Large raindrops against melting hail: calculation of specific differential attenuation, phase and reflectivity
ELECT The specific differential attenuation caused by large raindrops and a special form of melting hail is computed and studied. Raindrops of smoothed conical shapes and hailstones modelled by an ice sphere surrounded by a water torus are considered. For the former, scattering computation is carried out by the T-matrix method, while the higherorder method of moments in the surface integral equ...
متن کاملThe evaluation of change in attenuation coefficient of cerrobend block used for radiation protection of healthy tissues in megavoltage photon radiation therapy after multiple melting
Introduction: Protecting the vital organs in radiation therapy is one of the most important issues. Cerrobend alloy, the most common material used as the shield, is melted several times and used for different patients. In this study changes in attenuation coefficient of cerrobend due to melting was investigated. Materials and Methods: In melting furnace, ...
متن کاملATTENUATION OF PARAQUAT TOXICITY IN MICE
Paraquat (PQ) is a widely used herbicide. However, a large number of cases of accidental or suicidal poisoning from PQ has been reported. Membrane damage induced by lipid peroxidation, inactivation of protein or damage to DNA by radical formation have been suggested as toxicity mechanisms of PQ. In the present work, the effects of atropine, propranolol, procainamide and dipyridamole on PQ-...
متن کاملRadiation attenuation properties of shields containing micro and Nano WO3 in diagnostic X-ray energy range
Background: It has recently been shown that the particle size of materials used for radiation shielding can affect the magnitude of radiation attenuation. Over the past years, application of nano-structured materials in radiation shielding has attracted attention world-wide. The purpose of this study was to investigate the shielding properties of the lead-free shields containing micro and nano-...
متن کاملBarium Sulfate Epoxy Mixture Effects on Attenuation of Short Wavelength Radiation
Introduction There are three factors which are used to control the amount or dose of radiation received from a source. The radiation exposure can be managed by a combination of these factors; • Time: reducing the time of an exposure leads to reduction of the effective doses proportionally. • Shielding: refers to a mass of absorbing material placed around a reactor or other radioactive source in...
