Energy Absorption and Exposure Buildup Factors of Essential Amino Acids
نویسندگان
چکیده
The effective atomic number and effective electron density in amino acids are of significant interest due to their use in various applications. The energy absorption buildup factors, exposure buildup factors, effective atomic numbers, and electron densities of essential amino acids such as Leucine (C6H13NO2), Lysine (C6H14N2O2), Methionine (C5H11NO2S), Phenylalanine (C9H11NO2), Threonine (C4H9NO3), Tryptophan (C11H12N2O2), Valine (C5H11NO2), Arginine (C6H14N4O2), and Histidine (C6H9N3O2) were determined theoretically in the energy range 0.015-15 MeV.

A Comprehensive Study on Energy Absorption and Exposure Buildup Factors for some Soils and Ceramic Materials
Abstract: Study of gamma ray energy absorption (EABF) and exposure buildup factors (EBF) for some essential soils, ceramic materials in the energy region 0.015-15 MeV up to a penetration depth of 40 mfp (mean free path). To calculate both EABF and EBF, five parameter geometric progressions (G-P) fitting approximation has been used. Variation of EABF and EBF with incident photon energy, penetrat...
متن کاملA STUDY OF GAMMA RAY EXPOSURE BUILDUP FACTORS IN STRATIFIED SHIELDS FOR POINT ISOTROPIC SOURCES, INCLUDING THE EFFECTS OF INCOHERENT AND COHERENT SCATTERING
The effects of including incoherent (bound-electron) and coherent (Rayleigh) scattering in exposure buildup factor calculations for point isotropic gamma ray sources, penetrating a two-layer water-lead shield have been investigated in the gamma ray energy (E?) range of 40 keV to 3 MeV. Incoherent scattering decreases the values of these factors in both layers up to E? ~ 200 keV and the effect i...

The exposure buildup factors are important for determining the shield thickness of gamma and X-ray. Without taking this factor into account, the estimated thickness of the shield is less than what is expected which leads to an excessive received radiation exposure of staffs or patients. Given that the exposure buildup factor for the monoenergetic homogenous point sources have been calculated by...
متن کاملA STUDY OF ULTRASONIC ABSORPTION OF SOME AMINO ACIDS AND THEIR MIXTURES AT PHYSIOLOGICAL pH
In this paper, the ultrasonic absorption of amino acids was measured using a small cylindrical resonator at physiological pH and 25°C and a concentration of 0.1. M. The absorption of mixtures of some amino acids was also measured. In the case of cysteine-histidine, the absorption of mixtures is much larger (more than twice) than the summation of absorption of the individual amino acid. This...
