Accelerator based epithermal neutron source for neutron capture therapy [PDF]
, 1991 Several investigators have suggested that a charged particle accelerator with light element reactions might be able to produce enough epithermal neutrons to be useful in Neutron Capture Therapy. The reaction choice so far has been the Li(p,n) reaction with protons up to 2.5 MeV. A moderator around the target would reduce the faster neutrons down to the

The Constraint of Crewed Mars Missions Based on Current Radiation Dose Measurements
Space Weather, Volume 24, Issue 3, March 2026.Abstract Crewed missions to Mars will be a milestone of future space exploration programs. However, the absence of Earth's magnetic field leaves astronauts directly exposed to unattenuated energetic particles in deep space, primarily galactic cosmic rays (GCRs), resulting in significantly higher radiation levels and enhanced health risks. Understanding

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 3, March 2026.Abstract Irrigation is essential for stabilizing yields and sustaining food production, yet it faces increasing challenges, especially in water‐scarce regions. Cosmic‐ray neutron sensors (CRNS) are a promising tool in irrigation management as they can continuously monitor soil water content (SWC) over large areas.
