Aspergillus niger Spores Are Highly Resistant to Space Radiation [PDF]
, 2020 The filamentous fungus Aspergillus niger is one of the main contaminants of the International Space Station (ISS). It forms highly pigmented, airborne spores that have thick cell walls and low metabolic activity, enabling them to withstand harsh ...

Secondary light-ion transport from intermediate-energy hadron experiments
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2017 The aim of this research is to produce double differential thick target yields, angular distributions and integrated yields for the inclusive production of neutrons, protons, deuterons, tritons, 3He, and 4He from intermediate heavy-ion interactions on ...

Wormholes supported by pure ghost radiation [PDF]
, 2002 Traversible wormhole space-times are found as static, spherically symmetric solutions to the Einstein equations with ingoing and outgoing pure ghost radiation, i.e. pure radiation with negative energy density.

Light Ion Yields from Bombardment of Thick Targets by Protons, Helium-4 and Iron-56
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2017 In March 2016 accelerator-based experiments colliding protons (0.4 and 0.8 GeV), helium (0.4 AGeV) and iron (0.4 and 0.8 AGeV) on thick aluminum targets with surface densities of 20, 40, and 60 g/cm2 were performed at the National Aeronautics and Space ...

The Role of Nuclear Fragmentation in Particle Therapy and Space Radiation Protection
Frontiers in Oncology, 2016 The transport of so-called HZE particles (those having high charge, Z, and energy, E) through matter is crucially important both in space radiation protection and in the clinical setting where heavy ions are used for cancer treatment.

Gravitational Thermodynamics of Space-time Foam in One-loop Approximation [PDF]
, 1999 We show from one-loop quantum gravity and statistical thermodynamics that the thermodynamics of quantum foam in flat space-time and Schwarzschild space-time is exactly the same as that of Hawking-Unruh radiation in thermal equilibrium. This means we show

Modeling of Space Radiation Exposure Estimation Program for Pilots, Crew and Passengers on Commercial Flights [PDF]
Journal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2014 There has been a rapid increase of the concern on the space radiation effect on pilots, crew and passengers at the commercial aircraft altitude (~ 10 km) recently. It is because domestic airline companies, Korean Air and Asiana Airlines have just begun
