Capture-enhanced neutron irradiation to treat Alzheimer's disease: Design of a small animal set-up for future in-vivo experiments. [PDF]
Med PhysAbstract BackgroundAlzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by the accumulation of β$\beta$‐Amyloid and τ$\tau$ proteins in the brain that causes dementia. To date, there is no cure capable of eradicating AD, so it is necessary to study a performing therapy.

RIA Analysis of Unprotected TRIGA Reactor
Atom Indonesia, 2017 An RIA (reactivity initiated accident) analysis has been carried out for the TRIGA Mark II research reactor considering both step and ramp reactivity ranges within 0.5 % dk/k (< $1) to 2.0 % dk/k (>$2). The insertion time was set at 10 s.

Taming the Immiscibility of Gold, Iron, and Boron to Craft Chemodegradable Nanoparticles for Multimodal Imaging and Radiotherapy. [PDF]
Adv Healthc MaterOver half of cancer patients undergo radiotherapy. Laser ablation enabled the synthesis of immiscible Au‐Fe‐B nanoparticles designed as degradable bimodal radiosensitizers for X‐ray radiotherapy (XRT), boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT), and bimodal imaging for X‐ray computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). These nanosensitizers
