Comparative Effect of 200 Kv. X-rays and Gamma Rays on the Pupae of Drosophila Melanogaster
The roentgen has been adopted as the international unit of quantity or dose of x-rays and has proved satisfactory in practice. It is based on the measurement of ionization, satisfying the physical conditions of an "absolute" measurement. Since gamma rays also produce ionization, it is therefore theoretically possible to extend this unit to these rays as well, which for practical reasons is high...
متن کاملPreparation and characterization of Epoxy/Lead oxide nano-composite for shield against gamma and X-rays
Polymer nano-composites are a group of materials that represent proper mechanical, chemical, thermal and optical properties due to the presence of certain percentages of a filler in a polymeric matrix. In this study lead oxide nanoparticles were prepared by direct precipitation method. Then the lead oxide-epoxy resin nanocomposite was prepared by mixing (without solvent) with different weight p...
متن کاملThe Relative Effects of X-Rays, Gamma Rays and Beta Rays on Chromosomal Breakage in Tradescantia.
OR some time it has been generally considered that the production of F chromosomal aberrations in Tradescantia and many other materials is essentially independent of the wave length of the exciting radiation in the region shorter than 1.5 A. This view has not been seriously questioned in recent years and to date has remained one of the fundamental tenets of radiobiology. A number of isolated in...
متن کاملHIGH LATITUDE GAMMA RAYS ASSOCIATED WITH VIRGO
A more detailed analysis is made of the energy spectrum of the diffuse component of extragalactic gamma rays over the range of 0.3- 10 GeV, obtained fromthe EGRET instrument at the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory. The derived excess energy spectrum of high galactic latitude, b > 60°, using intercept method shows that it is correlated with Virgo cluster (over lsr) and average Virgo intensity i...
متن کاملGalactic cosmic rays & gamma rays : a synthesis
We have developed a model which aims to reproduce observational data of many kinds related to cosmic-ray origin and propagation: direct measurements of nuclei, antiprotons, electrons and positrons, γ-rays, and synchrotron radiation. Our main results include evaluation of diffusion/convection and reacceleration models, estimates of the halo size, calculations of the interstellar positron and ant...
