The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Plutonium was discovered and first synthesized in the early 1940's. Several isotopes of plutonium are used in nuclear technologies, 238Pu for heat generation and 239Pu for energy production and weapons. Both isotopes emit alpha particles, which pose a significant radiation hazard when incorporated into the body.

Radioisotope dating with accelerators [PDF]
Physics Today, 1979 A new method of detecting radioactive isotopes promises to have a revolutionary impact on the field of radioisotope dating. The technique, which was developed over the past two and a half years, consists of counting individual atoms of radioactive isotopes that have been ionized, accelerated to high energies, and then selected and identified.

Delayed X- and Gamma-Ray Line Emission from Solar Flare Radioactivity [PDF]
, 2006 We have studied the radioactive line emission expected from solar active regions after large flares, following the production of long-lived radioisotopes by nuclear interactions of flare-accelerated ions. This delayed X- and gamma-ray line emission can provide unique information on the accelerated particle composition and energy spectrum, as well as on

Copper in cancer: friend or foe? Metabolism, dysregulation, and therapeutic opportunities
Cancer Communications, EarlyView.Abstract Copper, one of the essential nutrients for the human body, acts as an electron relay in multiple pathways due to its redox properties. Both deficiencies and excesses of copper lead to cellular fragility. Therefore, it can manifest pro‐ and anti‐cancer properties in tumors. Therefore, it is crucial to clarify the copper activity within the cell.
