[1] Interactions with Matter Absorption of Beta and Gamma Radiation
ثبت نشده
چکیده
The purpose of this experiment is to understand the interaction of radiation and matter, and the application to radiation detection and shielding. The inverse square law of the distance is demonstrated with the gamma radiation from Co 60 preparation, the halfvalue thickness and absorption coefficient of various materials determined with the narrow beam system and the corresponding mass attenuation coefficient calculated.

Mechanism of Calf thymus DNA radioprotection by sucrose: A combined effect of scavenging action and altered water
Background: Development of safe radioprotector is a challenging task. In this study radioprotective effect of sucrose has been demonstrated in calf thymus DNA (CtDNA). Sucrose is a free radical scavenger and also acts as osmolyte and therefore can influence the water activity around DNA and effects of radiation on DNA. Hoechst 33258 was used to probe the possible alteration in physicochemical p...

TThis study investigated the water absorption of chitosan, collagen, and chitosan/collagen blend membranes exposed to gamma-ray irradiation. These membranes were produced via the solvent evaporation method. All membranes then underwent irradiation at 15 or 25 kGy gamma-ray doses, while membranes without irradiation were used as controls. After immersing the membranes in distilled water for up t...

متن کاملInvestigation of Developed Shield Composition to Neutron Shielding in Treatment Room for BNCT to Reduce Clinical Effects
Background and Aim: One of the best radiotherapy methods that have been suggested for the treatment of cancers such as brain, head and neck, skin, and recently liver is boron neutron capture therapy. Therefore, neutron shielding in the treatment room is important because the absorption of neutrons in the shield may lead to the production of gamma rays, which can have destructive effects. While ...
