Simulating Proton Radiation Tolerance of Perovskite Solar Cells for Space Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Energy and Sustainability Research, Volume 4, Issue 12, December 2023., 2023
Dang‐Thuan and co‐authors suggest a novel approach for predicting proton‐radiated degradation in perovskite solar cells. They combine ion scattering and optoelectronic simulations to overcome experimental constraints. FAMAPbI3‐based (lighter materials) cells show higher radiation tolerance than CsPbI2Br (heavier materials).

Evaluating the induced photon contamination by different breast IOERT shields using Monte Carlo simulation

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 24, Issue 11, November 2023., 2023
Abstract Background and Objective Avoiding the underlying healthy tissue over‐exposure during breast intraoperative electron radiotherapy (IOERT) is owing to the use of some dedicated radioprotection disks during patient irradiation. The originated contaminant photons from some widely used double‐layered shielding disks including PMMA+Cu, PTFE+steel ...

Development of a stand‐alone precalculated Monte Carlo code to calculate the dose by alpha and beta emitters from the Ra‐224 decay chain

open access: yesMedical Physics, Volume 50, Issue 8, Page 5176-5188, August 2023., 2023
Abstract Background Recent developments in alpha and beta emitting radionuclide therapy highlight the importance of developing efficient methods for patient‐specific dosimetry. Traditional tabulated methods such as Medical Internal Radiation Dose (MIRD) estimate the dose at the organ level while more recent numerical methods based on Monte Carlo (MC ...
