Overview of ionizing radiation effects in image sensors fabricated in a deep-submicrometer CMOS imaging technology [PDF]
An overview of ionizing radiation effects in imagers manufactured in a 0.18-μm CMOS image sensor technology is presented. Fourteen types of image sensors are characterized and irradiated by a 60Co source up to 5 kGy.

Halide lead perovskites for ionizing radiation detection
Halide lead perovskites have attracted increasing attention in recent years for ionizing radiation detection due to their strong stopping power, defect-tolerance, large mobility-lifetime (μτ) product, tunable bandgap and simple single crystal growth from

Effect of Dose Irradiation on the Expression of BRCA1 and BRCA2Genes in MCF-10A and MCF-7 cell lines [PDF]
Introduction: Breast cancer can be caused by a mutation in its genome. Some mutations are cancer-predisposition which exist at the moment of germ cell genesis. It has been discovered that BRCA1 and BRCA2 are linked to hereditary breast cancer.

Quantification of Artifacts and Image Distortions in 1.5 Tesla Magnetic Resonance Images of a Commercial Multi-Channel Vaginal Cylinder Brachytherapy Applicator Set [PDF]
Background: The BEBIG Portio multi-channel applicator provides better target dose coverage and sparing organs-at-risk compared to a single-channel cylinder. However, artifacts and distortions of Portio in magnetic resonance images (MRI) have not yet been

Two new 222Rn emanation sources – a comparison study [PDF]
More than 50 % of naturally occurring radiation exposure to the general public is due to the noble gas radon (222Rn) and its progenies, causing considerable health risks.

Peering through the holes: the far UV color of star-forming galaxies at z~3-4 and the escaping fraction of ionizing radiation [PDF]
We aim to investigate the effect of the escaping ionizing radiation on the color selection of high redshift galaxies and identify candidate Lyman continuum (LyC) emitters.

The Ionizing Efficiency of the First Stars [PDF]
We investigate whether a single population of first stars could have influenced both the metal enrichment and reionization of the high-redshift intergalactic medium (IGM), by calculating the generated ionizing radiation per unit metal yield as a function
