Enhancement of radiosensitization by metal-based nanoparticles in cancer radiation therapy
Radiation therapy performs an important function in cancer treatment. However, resistance of tumor cells to radiation therapy still remains a serious concern, so the study of radiosensitizers has emerged as a persistent hotspot in radiation oncology ...

Tolerance to Gamma Radiation in the Tardigrade Hypsibius dujardini from Embryo to Adult Correlate Inversely with Cellular Proliferation. [PDF]
Tardigrades are highly tolerant to desiccation and ionizing radiation but the mechanisms of this tolerance are not well understood. In this paper, we report studies on dose responses of adults and eggs of the tardigrade Hypsibius dujardini exposed to ...

Ultraviolet radiation‐induced tolerance [PDF]
Ultraviolet (UV) radiation is one of the most important environmental factors. Besides its well-known advantages and its indispensable effects on human life, UV light, particularly the middle wavelength range (290-320 nm [UVB]), can harm human health by inducing skin cancer, premature skin aging, inflammation, and cell death (1-4).

Optical Multi-Context Blind Scrubbing for Field Programmable Gate Arrays
This paper presents aproposal of a new optical multi-context blind scrubbing that can not only increase the soft-error tolerance of the configuration memory of field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) but also support high-speed dynamic reconfiguration ...

Achieving exceptional radiation tolerance with crystalline-amorphous nanocrystalline structures
Nanostructured materials with amorphous intergranular films (AIFs) have demonstrated superior strength and ductility. Their radiation tolerance is expected to be high as the large fraction of interfacial volume efficiently sinks radiation-induced defects.
