Microdosimetry Study of Proton Quality Factor Using Analytic Model Calculations
Applied Sciences, 2022 The quality factor (Q) is formally linked to the stochastic (e.g., carcinogenic) risk of diverse ionizing radiations at low doses and/or low dose rates.

METHODS OF ASSESSMENT OF THE RELATIVE BIOLOGICAL EFFECTIVENESS OF NEUTRONS IN NEUTRON THERAPY
Сибирский онкологический журнал, 2017 The relative biological effectiveness (RBE) of fast neutrons is an important factor influencing the quality of neutron therapy therefore, the assessment of RBE is of great importance.

Estimating the Relative Biological Effectiveness of Auger Electron Emitter 123I in Human Lymphocytes
Frontiers in Physics, 2020 Auger electron emitters are considered to be a promising strategy for targeted radionuclide therapy of metastatic diseases, given their high linear energy transfer (LET) and short range in tissue which could potentially limit normal tissue toxicity ...

The relative biological effectiveness of antiprotons
, 2016 Aside from the enhancement of physical dose deposited by antiprotons annihilating in tissue-like material compared to protons of the same range a further increase of biological effective dose has been demonstrated. This enhancement can be expressed in an
