exposure buildup factors have been calculated by monte carlo method for point isotropic gamma ray sources, penetrating a two-layer spherical shield of water surrounded by lead, and the effect of bremsstrahlung radiation on buildup factors has, in particular, been investigated, the results of which are in good agreement with previous works. the buildup factors were then calculated for various co...

geomagnetic field is a one of the candidates for creation of anisotropy in azimuth distribution of extensive air showers over the entered cosmic rays to the atmosphere. here we present the question: is there any azimuth anisotropy flux in the upper level of the atmosphere due to the geomagnetic field over the entered cosmic-rays? the obtained answer is: yes. this investigation showed an agreeme...

Background Prostate cancer is the second most common cancers in the world which causing harms and waste cost. Furthermore more prostate treatments are in effective and lead to male infertility. Purpose of this study was to evaluate the role gamma radiation with silver nano particles in treatment of human prostate cancer cell line in vitro. MaterialsAndMethods Human prostate cancer cell line DU1...

the geothermal phenomena in the area nearby the euganean hills (near padua, in italy) areknown and exploited for therapeutic purposes since ancient times, and recently also for aesthetic purposes.this paper presents the first characterization of the radionuclides content in the euganean thermal waters and mud, extended to a great number of spas. in particular the radionuclides content of both t...

the main objective for plant breeding is to increase genetic diversity. mutation induction is a method to increase genetic diversity associated with selection, recombination, or a combination of these approaches in plant breeding. the present research was aimed to compare efficacy of different doses of gamma rays (150, 200, 250, 300 and 350 gy and zero dose control) on the sesame morphological ...
