[ 1 ] - Modeling the distribution of deposited energy by alpha particles from Radon 223 decay and its effect on DNA

 The ionizing radiations, through physical and chemical processes, lead to simple and complex single- and double- strand breaks, as well as base lesions to the DNA. In this study, taking into account all the physical and chemical processes involved in the interaction of ionizing radiation with matter, the initial damage induced to DNA was evaluated for 5.7 MeV alpha-rays from Radon 223 isotope....
