Radioactive iodine in the treatment of Graves' disease: history and modern concept of radionuclide therapy [PDF]
Radioactive iodine 131I is a theranostic isotope used both for diagnosis and therapy of benign thyroid diseases and thyroid cancer for 85 years. The formation of nuclear medicine is closely linked with the use of 131I.

Iodine-131 is increasingly used for diagnostic and therapeutic applications. The excretion of radioactive iodine is primarily through the urine. The safe disposal of radioactive waste is an important component of overall hospital waste management.

Mass and half-life measurements of neutron-deficient iodine isotopes
Neutron-deficient iodine isotopes, $$^{116}$$ 116 I and $$^{114}$$ 114 I, were produced at relativistic energies by in-flight fragmentation at the Fragment Separator (FRS) at GSI.

Tellurium Spectrometer for ${}^1\text{S}_0-{}^{1}\text{P}_1$ Transitions in Strontium and Other Alkaline-Earth Atoms [PDF]
We measure the spectrum of tellurium-130 in the vicinity of the 461~nm ${}^1\text{S}_0-{}^{1}\text{P}_1$ cycling transition in neutral strontium, a popular element for atomic clocks, quantum information, and quantum-degenerate gases. The lack of hyperfine structure in tellurium results in a spectral density of transitions nearly 50 times lower than ...

Temporal variation in 129I and 127I in aerosols from Xi'an, China: influence of East Asian monsoon and heavy haze events [PDF]
Aerosol iodine isotopes are pivotal links in atmospheric circulation of iodine in both atmospheric and nuclear sciences, while their sources, temporal change and transport mechanism are still not well understood.

Radiation Dosimetry of Theragnostic Pairs for Isotopes of Iodine in IAZA
Theragnostic pairs of isotopes are used to infer radiation dosimetry for a therapeutic radiopharmaceutical from a diagnostic imaging study with the same tracer molecule labelled with an isotope better suited for the imaging task. We describe the transfer

Isotope Shift Measurements of Stable and Short-Lived Lithium Isotopes for Nuclear Charge Radii Determination [PDF]
Changes in the mean-square nuclear charge radii along the lithium isotopic chain were determined using a combination of precise isotope shift measurements and theoretical atomic structure calculations.

Light-tunable three-phase coexistence in mixed halide perovskites [PDF]
Mixed iodine-bromine perovskites used in solar cells undergo below a critical temperature an intrinsic demixing into phases with different iodine-bromine compositions. In addition, under illumination they show nucleation of an iodine-rich phase. We predict from thermodynamic considerations that in mixed iodine-bromine perovskites like MAPb(I$_{1-x}$Br ...

Determination of ultra-low level 129I in vegetation using pyrolysis for iodine separation and accelerator mass spectrometry measurements [PDF]
Radioactive isotopes of iodine are the most common radiological toxins from nuclear accidents due to their high release and high enrichment in human thyroid.
