The present electron microscopic study of a spontaneous mammary tumor (diagnosed histologically as adenocarcinoma) of collared lemming was undertaken in search for the possible presence of particles resembling oncogenic RNA virus particles. The study has demonstrated the presence of a large number of characteristic virus-like particles. The virus-like particles were similar to the ham ster type...

the radiobiological effects of high atomic number and energy (hze particles) ion beams are of interest for radioprotection in space and tumor radiotherapy. space radiation mainly consists of heavy charged particles from protons to iron ions, which is distinct from common terrestrial forms of radiation. hze particles pose a significant cancer risk to astronauts on prolonged space missions. with ...

Introduction: Proton therapy is newer therapeutic method for early stage breast cancer. Proton beams release most of their energy in the Bragg peak and then will be a rapid decline in their end. When protons interact with matter, produce secondary particles like neutrons and gammas, and these unwanted radiation has no beneficial effect and also is believed to increase the risk ...

Following an old result of Marcus and Schwarz we argue that in the heterotic string theory compactified on a seven dimensional torus, the target space duality group O(7,23;Z) and the strong-weak coupling duality transformations combine into the group O(8,24;Z). We discuss symmetry of the combined spectrum of elementary particles and solitons in the theory, and also show that the existence of th...
