Experimental activation assessment of open-type yoke in a PET cyclotron by non-destructive/destructive γ-ray measurement approaches. [PDF]

Med Phys
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 ...

Metal-dependent regulated cell death: Molecular architecture and translational frontiers. [PDF]

Imeta
Intracellular metal dyshomeostasis orchestrates distinct regulated cell death programs, including iron‐driven ferroptosis, copper‐mediated cuproptosis, calcicoptosis, newly designated zincoptosis, mnoptosis, and coptosis. This review systematically delineates their molecular architectures—spanning from Sorafenib‐induced lipid peroxidation and ...

Assessment of long-lived residual radioisotopes in cement induced by neutron radiation [PDF]

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2020
During the decommissioning of nuclear power plants, a significant amount of cement based composites should be disposed as radioactive waste. The use of material with low-activation constituents could effectively reduce radioactivity of concrete.
