Radiotherapy using accelerated charged particles is rapidly growing worldwide. About 85% of the cancer patients receiving particle therapy is irradiated with protons, which have physical advantages compared to X-rays but similar biological response. In addition to the ballistic advantages, heavy ions present specific radiobiological features that can ...

Fission of Gold by Carbon Ions [PDF]
Angular distribution and kinetic-energy spectra of fragments, and cross sections for fission of gold with 68 to 124 Mev C/sup 12/ ions were obtained by observation of the fragments in two types of detectors (gas scintillation chambers and silicon p-n junctions).

Effect of carbon ion implantation on the tribology of metal-on-metal bearings for artificial joints [PDF]
Metal-on-metal (MoM) bearings have become popular due to a major advantage over metal-on-polymer bearings for total hip arthroplasty in that the larger femoral head and hydrodynamic lubrication of the former reduce the rate of wear.
