Background: After radiation therapy (RT), some health hazards including DNA damages
may occur where melatonin can play a protective role due to free radical generation. On the …

Half-value thickness of aluminum absorbers has been investigated experimentally and
theoretically. Cs-137, Tl-204 and Sr-90/Y-90 radio-isotopes were used as beta sources …

Reduction of beta-ray intensity with respect to thickness of absorber material exhibits a non-
exponential behavior due to the different types of the energy loss processes and many …

This paper reports the near space ballooning experiment carried out at Australian outback
town West Wyalong (33° 51′ S, 147° 24′ E) on 19 July 2015. Several dedicated electronic …

Using a counting system with plastic scintillation detector, beta linear and mass attenuation
coefficients were determined for bakelite, Al, Fe and plexiglass absorbers by means of …

The mass attenuation coefficient of lead nitrate (Pb (NO3) 2)-filled polycarbonate (PC)
composite films were determined both computationally (using Baltakmen's and Thummel …

An analytical model is presented to calculate the total detection efficiency of a well-type
radiation detector for photons, electrons and positrons emitted from a radioactive source at …

Current standard methods to calculate the dose of radiation emitted during medical
applications by beta-minus emitting microspheres rely on an over-simplistic formalism. This …

The nuclear thickness gauging systems play an important role in the industry for invasive,
online, and continuous measurements. The goal of the Beta thickness gauge is to obtain a …

Lead monoxide filled polycarbonate polymer composite films have been prepared with
twelve different filler levels, ranging from 0.5 up to 10.0 percent by weight, by using …
