Integrated Digital Garment Modeling and Monte Carlo Simulation of a Water‐Based Radiation Protection Vest for Spaceflight Radiation Hazards

open access: yesSpace Weather, Volume 24, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract As crewed space missions set course for the Moon and beyond, astronauts will experience prolonged exposure to Galactic Cosmic Rays (GCR) and potentially intense Solar Proton Events (SPEs), both of which pose significant short‐ and long‐term health risks.

トカマク型核融合実験装置におけるPHITSを用いた計算の現状 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
核融合分野の核解析で以前から使用しているMCNPに比べ、ソースプログラムの入手のしやすさ、容易にグラフィック出力が得られるPHITSを2006年頃からトカマク型核融合実験装置の核解析に使用している。 PHITS使用に際し、ドーナツ形状のトーラス中性子体積線源を開発・整備し利用してきたが、並列化への対応等に伴いソースプラグラムの大幅な変更が行われたPHITS Ver2.50以降について対応できていなかった。今回新たに、PHITS Ver.2.82にトーラス中性子体積線源の整備を行った結果 ...

Systematic review of physical and dosimetric criteria for managing CIEDs in radiotherapy: A medical physicist's perspective

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Aim Current radiotherapy (RT) guidelines for Cardiac Implantable Electronic Devices (CIEDs) are largely based on clinical management strategies and retrospective reports. This systematic review adopts a medical physics perspective to provide a critical, quantitative analysis of the technical evidence required for developing robust safety ...
