Security of radioactive sources: lessons learned from the Goiania accident
Radioactive sources, widely applicable to both medical and industrial settings, have many risks to security as they are often available to the general public and employees, who might or might not have been subjected to correct security assessments and ...

Understanding Autistic Young Adults' Perceptions and Experiences of Traumatic and Stressful Events
ABSTRACT Objectives The aim of this study was to explore how young autistic adults experience and respond to stressful life events, and the relationship between autistic characteristics and symptoms of stress associated with these events. Methods Using an exploratory sequential mixed‐methods approach, an online qualitative survey was first administered

A cross‐sectional survey of 1274 adults residing in Iraq found a median radiation‐related knowledge score of 5/10 and a median attitude score of 17/25. Only 18% correctly identified that MRI does not use ionizing radiation, while 36% recognized that a spiral CT scan may involve radiation equivalent to 100–800 conventional X‐rays.

Late Quaternary lake filling and drying in northern Australia's largest freshwater lake
ABSTRACT Lake Woods, Jurrkulu, is northern Australia's largest freshwater lake filled today in strong Indo–Australian summer monsoons (IASM) to maximum depths of ~5 m. On the western margins of the lake, two large arcuate ridges occur 20 to 40 m above the lake floor and inset within these are other mid‐elevation lake deposits, such as depositional ...

A zero‐dimensional perovskite‐inspired scintillator (Cs3Cu2I5) is developed as a high‐radiation‐resilient radionuclide analyzer capable of operating under extreme γ‐ray environments. Even after 200 kGy irradiation, the device fully restores its original spectroscopic performance through simple thermal annealing, demonstrating intrinsic defect ...

Hydrogen Analyses of FSW Cu‐OFP Tested Under Creep Conditions in Sulphide Containing Environment
Friction stir welded Cu‐OFP exhibits elevated creep rates in sulphide‐containing aqueous environments, with creep increasing as sulphide concentration rises. Hydrogen measurements indicate that sulphide exposure does not increase hydrogen content. ABSTRACT Friction stir welded oxygen‐free phosphorus‐doped copper (FSW Cu‐OFP) is a candidate material for
