A Review of the Impact of Radiation Damage on the Mechanical Properties of Borosilicate Glasses

International Journal of Ceramic Engineering &Science, Volume 8, Issue 6, November 2026.
Under irradiation, borosilicate glasses are modified at the atomic scale, including the formation of undercoordinated ions, that lead to changes in macroscopic properties. Decades of research have illuminated many aspects of the effects of radiation damage, but the complexity of these glasses leaves several unanswered questions.

Technical note: Comparison of radiometric techniques for estimating recent organic carbon sequestration rates in inland wetland soils [PDF]

Biogeosciences
For wetlands to serve as natural climate solutions, accurate estimates of organic carbon (OC) sequestration rates in wetland sediments are needed. Dating using cesium-137 (137Cs) and lead-210 (210Pb) radioisotopes is commonly used for measuring OC ...

Seeing radiation: Applications of an imaging survey meter in radiation oncology

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Background and purpose Radiation shielding surveys require location and evaluation of radiation hotspots in shielding barriers. This process is normally done by using a conventional survey meter and slowly moving the survey meter manually across the face of the barrier.

Discovering Shared Design Heritage for Semiconductor‐Based Gamma‐Ray Spectrometers: From CdTe to Metal Halide Perovskites

Laser &Photonics Reviews, Volume 20, Issue 17, 3 September 2026.
Decades of CdTe and CdZnTe gamma‐ray spectrometer development define core design principles for room‐temperature semiconductor detectors. This Review highlights how metal halide perovskites rapidly assimilate these principles, particularly through defect and compositional engineering strategies that establish favorable spectroscopic conditions for ...

Experimental activation assessment of open‐type yoke in a PET cyclotron by non‐destructive/destructive γ‐ray measurement approaches

Medical Physics, Volume 53, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Background During decommissioning of positron emission tomography (PET) cyclotron facilities, metallic components—including the iron yoke—are typically classified as radioactive waste, incurring substantial disposal costs. In contrast to concrete, standardized decommissioning procedures for metallic components have not yet been established ...

Assessment of Soil Erosion Over Six Decades in a Long‐Term Experiment Using Fallout 137Cs and RUSLE: A South American Case Study

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 13, Page 9038-9052, 15 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Soil erosion remains a major global concern affecting agricultural productivity and land sustainability. This study investigates the magnitude and variability of soil erosion in a long‐term experiment (LTE) established in 1963 in Colonia, Uruguay, aiming to compare the performance of the 137Cs tracer technique and the RUSLE model across ...

[The role of individual segments of the gastrointestinal tract in the elimination of cesium radioisotopes].

Roczniki Panstwowego Zakladu Higieny, 1992
The transfer of radiocesium from blood to the lumen of individual sections of the gastro-intestinal tract was quantitatively determined. The water suspension of ion exchange resin was injected to the lumen of the individual sections of the gastro-intestinal tract. The sections were ligated. The highest amount of radiocesium absorbed to the resin in the

Contrast Agents for Enhanced Bioimaging: A Comprehensive Review

ChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 13, 14 July 2026.
Contrast agents, especially those that are nanoparticle‐based, are revolutionizing bioimaging by enabling highly sensitive, specific, and early‐stage diagnosis of diseases like cancer, using clinical imaging modalities such as CT, MRI, PET, and SPECT.
