A new method in the production of Ac-227, Ra-228, Th-228 and U-232 on Thorium target from different perspective for use in Radioisotope Power Systems and Nuclear Batteries [PDF]
We recommended a new method from different perspective for the production of Ac-227, Ra-228, Th-228 and U-232 radioisotopes which have an important potential for use in radioisotope power systems (instead of Pu-238) and nuclear batteries, based on long half-life, high power density and low radiation level.

Prevalence of short-lived radioactive isotopes across exoplanetary systems inferred from polluted white dwarfs [PDF]
In the Solar System short-lived radioisotopes, such as 26Al, played a crucial role during the formation planetary bodies by providing a significant additional source of heat. Notably, this led to early and large-scale melting and iron core formation in planetesimals and their loss of volatile elements, such as hydrogen and carbon.

Investigation of alpha particle induced reactions on natural silver in the 40-50 MeV energy range [PDF]
Natural silver targets have been irradiated by using a 50 MeV alpha-particle beam in order to measure the activation cross sections of radioisotopes in the 40-50 MeV energy range. Among the radio-products there are medically important isotopes such as $^{110m}$In and $^{111}$In.

Fluids and flows in brain cancer and neurological disorders
The different roles of fluids and flow in brain cancer (left) and Alzheimer's disease (right) into and out of the brain and within the interstitial spaces (insets). Abstract Interstitial fluid (IF) and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) are an integral part of the brain, serving to cushion and protect the brain parenchymal cells against damage and aid in their ...
