Characterization of relative biological effectiveness for conventional radiation therapy: a comparison of clinical 6 MV X-rays and 137Cs

Journal of Radiation Research, 2017
Various types of radiation are utilized in the treatment of cancer. Equal physical doses of different radiation types do not always result in the same amount of biological damage.

Radiocaesium in the fungal compartment of forest ecosystems [PDF]

, 2003
Fungi in forest ecosystems are major contributors to accumulation and cycling of radionuclides, especially radiocaesium. However, relatively little is known about uptake and retention of 137Cs by fungal mycelia.

Scintillation-only Based Pulse Shape Discrimination for Nuclear and Electron Recoils in Liquid Xenon

, 2011
In a dedicated test setup at the Kamioka Observatory we studied pulse shape discrimination (PSD) in liquid xenon (LXe) for dark matter searches. PSD in LXe was based on the observation that scintillation light from electron events was emitted over a ...

Atmospheric Modeling of 137Cs Plumes From the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant—Evaluation of the Model Intercomparison Data of the Science Council of Japan

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, 2018
Since the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant (FDNPP) accident in March 2011, atmospheric simulation models have improved our understanding of the atmospheric behavior of radionuclides. Model intercomparisons provide valuable and useful information for

Desorption of 137Cs+ from mosses

Journal of the Serbian Chemical Society, 2002
Mosses are biomonitors that accumulate large amounts of various pollutants including radionuclides. In this work we investigated the possibility of 137Cs extraction from mosses, as well as the significance of species specificity on the efficiency of 137Cs desorption. Salt and acid solutions were used as extraction media. It was shown that a 5% solution

Concentrations of 90Sr and 137Cs/90Sr activity ratios in marine fishes after the Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Plant accident

, 2017
Strontium-90 (90Sr) was released together with radioactive cesium (Cs) from the Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Plant (FNPP) accident. Although the total amount of 90Sr released into the marine environment from the FNPP was estimated to be a factor of ...
