This book, published in 2005 by the International Atomic Energy Agency, is a comprehensive compendium of all of the topics that should be covered by a radiation oncology physics course, from basic ...

Nuclear physics is a forbidding subject, even to trained physicists. To understand current news and discussions about nuclear science and technology, some background knowledge is required, and the ...

The IAEA has recently published the Nuclear Medicine Physics Handbook, which is intended for teachers, students and residents involved in medical physics programmes, and aspiring to serve as primary ...

Physics is the science that quantifies reality. Its influence extends to all the natural sciences, including biophysics, astronomy, and chemistry. Physics classifies all interactions between matter ...

The UAB Department of Radiation Oncology’s Residency Program is proud to offer a comprehensive residency program that produces experts in clinical radiation oncology, radiation physics, and ...

The debate speakers (left to right): Daniela Thorwarth, Ludvig Muren, Ben Heijmen, Julian Malicki and Giovanna Gagliardi. Radiotherapy is a continually evolving modality, with technology advances ...

The ionising effect of radiation is used in the Geiger-Muller (GM) tube as a means of detecting the radiation. The GM tube is a hollow cylinder filled with a gas at low pressure. The tube has a thin ...

We are a four-year program offering at least 36 months in clinical radiation oncology training. The residents spend a lot of their time at the J. Evans and Mary P. Attwell Radiation Therapy Center, ...

The effect of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) was studied in radiation-induced apoptosis in rat jejunal crypt cells. Six-week-old male Wistar rats were administered 4 mg/kg bFGF ...

The development of laser–plasma accelerators began in the early 1980s, inspired by the pioneering work of Tajima and Dawson 1. Key to their operation is the fact that unlike the superconducting ...

The Centre for Advanced Research in Environmental Radioactivity (CARER), Mangalore University is organizing the 20th National Symposium on Radiation Physics (NSRP-20) in association with the Indian ...

Primordial black holes may be exploding throughout the universe. If we can catch them in the act, it could pave the way to new physics, a study suggests. When you purchase through links on our site, ...
