Terrestrial background radiation studies in South Konkan, Maharashtra, India
Background: The natural radionuclides are always present in soil and care needs to be taken to minimize the radiation dose to humans. These radionuclides are mostly gamma ray emitting radionuclides which contribute to the radiation dose in long term behavior of radionuclides in soil. Health hazards associated with natural radioactivity are of great concern and it is necessary to assess risk due...
متن کاملA Glance at the Errors of Some Studies on the Health Effects of High Background Natural Radiation Areas
There is no place on the Earth, the planet we live on, where the natural background radiation level is zero. Since the birth and even in our fetal stage, we have been exposed to different sources of natural radiation. Life, in fact, evolved in a radiation environment that was much more harsh than today. Earth serves as a source of terrestrial radiation. Uranium, thorium, and radium are among th...
متن کاملStudies of excited charm and beauty mesons at LHCb
The LHCb detector is a general purpose forward spectrometer at the Large Hadron Collider, which exploits the ≈ 300 μb cross-section for bb̄ production and ≈ 6 mb cross-section for cc̄ production in 7 TeV proton-proton collisions to make precise measurements of the properties of heavy flavour hadrons. Studies of excited B and D mesons using a dataset corresponding to 1 fb−1 of integrated luminosit...
متن کاملGEANT4 Validation Studies at the ISIS Muon Facility
GEANT4 provides an extensive set of alternative hadronic models. Simulations of the ISIS muon production using three such models applicable in the energy range of interest are presented in this paper and compared with the experimental data. INTRODUCTION The Monte Carlo particle transport code Geant4 [1] represents a powerful tool for simulating the passage of particles through matter. The simul...
