Martian sub-surface ionising radiation: biosignatures and geology [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2007 The surface of Mars, unshielded by thick atmosphere or global magnetic field, is exposed to high levels of cosmic radiation. This ionising radiation field is deleterious to the survival of dormant cells or spores and the persistence of molecular ...

Quantification of complex DNA damage by ionising radiation: An experimental and theoretical approach [PDF]
, 2000 This thesis was submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and awarded by Brunel University.Ionising radiation potentially produces a broad spectrum of damage in DNA including single and double strand breaks (ssb and dsb) and base damages.

How do air ions reflect variations in ionising radiation in the lower atmosphere in a boreal forest? [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2016 Most of the ion production in the atmosphere is attributed to ionising radiation. In the lower atmosphere, ionising radiation consists mainly of the decay emissions of radon and its progeny, gamma radiation of the terrestrial origin as well as photons

Interns, Postgraduate Residents and Non Radiologist Doctors Awareness about Ionising Radiation in Diagnostic Imaging Investigations in a Tertiary Hospital, Bengaluru [PDF]
International Journal of Anatomy Radiology and Surgery, 2017 Introduction: Radiological investigations that use ionising radiations are known to pose health risks to patients subjected to them. Hence, exposure of patients to ionising radiation during radiological investigations must be As Low As Reasonably ...

Radiation exposure by medical X-ray applications
GMS German Medical Science, 2022 Background: Radioactive material and ionising radiation play a central role in medical diagnostics and therapy. The benefit of ionising radiation is opposed by the risk of irreparable damage of the human organism.
