In microelectronics, single failure events sporadically occur which, in some areas, like plane and space navigation, could have catastrophic consequences. Preliminary estimations [1] and more recent experiments [2] indicate a correlation between these events and the Background Neutron Radiation (BNR) [3]. The mechanism of failure is the collision of a neutron from the BNR with an atomic nucleus...

تأثیر پرتوگیری مزمن بر ساکنین مناطق با پرتوزایی طبیعی بالا در شهر رامسر، استفاده از روش سیتوژنتیک سنجش هستک­های متوقف شده مرحله سیتوکینز و مقایسه­ی نتایج میان دو گروه مورد مطالعه کنترل، بررسی قرار گرفت. نشان داد اختلاف معنی­داری (001/0< P) میانگین فرکانس شمارش لنفوسیت­های خون محیطی (ساکن منطقه­ی بالای رامسر) کنترل تنکابن) وجود دارد. هم­چنین، بعد پرتودهی نمونه­ها، افزایش بیش­تری را هستک­ها نسبت ...

These lectures will attempt to convey the excitement and promise in studies of the microwave radiation left over from the early universe. They are aimed at an audience of experimental high energy physicists. The first lecture will concentrate on how the radiation is characterized, how it and its anisotropies are generated, and the physics that it reveals. The second lecture will concentrate on ...

background: the south-west coast of india is known to have very high levels of natural background radiation due to the monazite beach sand. uranium is the heaviest trace element found in all terrestrial substances at varying levels with chemical and radio toxicities. it supports several short-lived radioisotopes in its decay series including radium. uranium in drinking water is important in ter...

introduction natural and artificial radionuclides are the main sources of human radiation exposure. these radionuclides, which are present in the environment, can enter the food chain. rice is one of the most important food components in iran. radionuclides by transferring from soil to rice and entering the human body can affect human health. materials and methods fourteen samples of different ...
