Validation of Bayesian modeling approach of uncertainty in organ doses using post-mortem measurements

Scientific Reports
The biokinetic and dosimetry models recommended by the International Commission on Radiological Protection do not incorporate dosimetric uncertainty. Recently, Bayesian approach—offering distribution of dose estimates rather than a single point value—has

Structural design and property regulation of organic polymers for photocatalytic synthesis of H2O2

InfoScience, EarlyView.
Photocatalytic synthesis of H2O2 offers a sustainable approach. Photocatalytic efficiency depends critically on interfacial electron transfer kinetics and spatial charge separation. Herein, we systematically analyze key factors governing photogenerated carrier dynamics and propose engineered strategies to optimize performance, thereby providing design ...

Shield materials recommended for space power nuclear reactors [PDF]

Lithium hydride is recommended for neutron attenuation and depleted uranium is recommended for gamma ray attenuation. For minimum shield weights these materials must be arranged in alternate layers to attenuate the secondary gamma rays efficiently.

Acute and Chronic Toxicity of Sediments Containing Platinum and Palladium on Freshwater Benthic Organisms Chironomus riparius and Hyalella azteca

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The expanding demand for platinum group elements (PGEs) in industrial and medical applications has led to their increasing accumulation in aquatic sediments. However, their ecological impacts remain poorly understood, particularly for sediment‐dwelling invertebrates. This study assessed the toxicity of platinum (Pt) and palladium (Pd) across a

Cavity temperature and flow characteristics in a gas-core test reactor [PDF]

A test reactor concept for conducting basic studies on a fissioning uranium plasma and for testing various gas-core reactor concepts is analyzed. The test reactor consists of a conventional fuel-element region surrounding a 61-cm-(2-ft-) diameter cavity ...

Healing Beams: Radiation and Radiotherapy in Novels, Poems, Music, Film, Painting

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
Radiation and radiotherapy are perceived by patients and the general public as mysterious, dangerous and healing. The image of radiation and radiotherapy can be analysed by studying novels, poems, music, film and painting. Our paper reviews how radiation and radiotherapy are perceived by patients, the general public, as reflected in various art genres.

Barren Lands and Barren Bodies In Navajo Nation: Indian Women WARN about Uranium, Genetics, and Sterilization [PDF]

, 2019
Founded by Native American women in 1974, Women of All Red Nations (WARN) insisted that the ongoing Indian public health crisis could not be properly understood exclusively within the context of the exploitation and pollution of the physical environment.

Geological characteristics of neoproterozoic motianling granitic pluton hosting uranium mineralization in North Guangxi, China: Insights from biotite chemistry

Frontiers in Earth Science
The Motianling pluton represents a characteristic U-bearing granite pluton in South China. Biotite serves as an indicator for the mineralization of metals such as Cu, Sn, and W in granite. Previous studies have extensively investigated the U metallogenic

Thermochemically Treated Sewage Sludge Ash From Pilot‐Scale Production as P‐Fertilizer for Spring Wheat and Maize in Different Soil Conditions

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background P‐fertilizers made from sewage sludge ash (SSA) may be suitable substitutes for rock phosphate (RP)‐based fertilizers and contribute to sustainable use of waste. In this context, the thermochemical AshDec treatment of SSA (TC‐SSA) has been continuously improved and has emerged as a possible method to produce plant‐available and low ...
