The objective is to develop a model and solution techniques to estimate radiation absorbed dose to the population randomly moving around a radioactive source. This mathematical model can be used as a ...

Ionizing radiation generates DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) that challenge DNA repair mechanisms and drive mutagenesis, chromosome rearrangements, and cell lethality. These features underlie its ...

Engineers from Washington University in Saint Louis are developing a novel imaging technique for evaluating the use of alpha-particle emitting radiopharmaceutical therapy in tumors and other radiation ...

(Reuters) - Health experts urged governments in the Asia Pacific to monitor radioactivity levels after Japan's quake-damaged nuclear power plant exploded and sent radiation into the air. Radiation is ...

During flights, airplane crews are exposed to cosmic radiation, yet regulatory protections for these workers are insufficient, and a lack of data complicates efforts to better understand the ...
