Statistical features of the thermal neutron capture cross sections

, 2015
We discuss the existence of huge thermal neutron capture cross sections in several nuclei. The values of the cross sections are several orders of magnitude bigger than expected at these very low energies.

Taming the Immiscibility of Gold, Iron, and Boron to Craft Chemodegradable Nanoparticles for Multimodal Imaging and Radiotherapy

Advanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 16, 24 April 2026.
Over half of cancer patients undergo radiotherapy. Laser ablation enabled the synthesis of immiscible Au‐Fe‐B nanoparticles designed as degradable bimodal radiosensitizers for X‐ray radiotherapy (XRT), boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT), and bimodal imaging for X‐ray computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). These nanosensitizers

Engineering Hybrid Polymeric Gd2O3 Nanoparticles for Tumor‐Targeted Neutron Capture Therapy

ChemNanoMat, Volume 12, Issue 4, April 2026.
Neutron capture therapy (NCT) stands as a transformative approach for precision oncology. The principle relies on tumor‐targeted isotopes, such as boron‐10 (10B) and gadolinium‐157 (157Gd), for generating cytotoxic high energy particles upon thermal neutron irradiation.
