Studies of the mechanical and neutron shielding features of concrete by incorporation of green additive materials: Experimental and numerical study

Marzieh Hassanpour et al.

Summary: Concrete is widely used as a radiation shielding material, and this study evaluates the effects of adding pistachio shell (PS) and date palm leaf (PL) as natural additives to improve neutron shielding properties. Numerical studies using MCNP code show that incorporating PS and PL additives in concrete can enhance shielding performance against fast and thermal neutrons.

The efficacy of thick gas electron multiplier detector in measuring 14C for dating purpose

Mehdi Hassanpour et al.

Summary: This study introduces a new method for calculating C-14 activity using the THGEM detector in SQS mode, which obtains the correlation between C-14 activity and the number of SQS light in THGEM holes through Monte Carlo simulation and measurement. The results show that the THGEM detector is suitable for determining C-14 activity in existing organisms and plants.

Inhalation dose in the indoor environment of Eloor industrial area, Kerala, India

Dhanya Balakrishnan et al.

Summary: The study evaluated the Potential Alpha Energy Concentration (PAEC) of radon and thoron progenies in dwellings in the Eloor industrial region in Kerala, finding that homes with marble floors had higher concentrations. The total inhalation dose was measured to be 0.23 mSv y(-1) based on aerosol samples collected and gross particulate activity measurements.

Low radiation dose to treat pneumonia and other inflammations

Ming Tsuey Chew et al.

Summary: Infection can cause reactive inflammation with distinct types of inflammation occurring in response to tumors, allergies, and autoimmune disorders. COVID-19 virus can lead to serious complications such as pneumonia, respiratory tract infections, and septic shock. Radiation therapy is not only used to control malignant tumors, but also for treating non-malignant diseases like inflammation in situations where anti-inflammatory drugs may not work.

Calculation of secondary radiation absorbed doses due to the proton therapy on breast cancer using MCNPX code

Niloofar Azadegan et al.

Summary: In this study, the effects of secondary radiation damage caused by proton radiation therapy were investigated by simulating a proton beam irradiating a hypothetical breast tumor. The absorbed doses to the tumor and scattering radiation doses to other organs were calculated, showing that the scattered neutron dose near the breast can be negligible under certain conditions. A spread-out Bragg peak was obtained using weighted combinations of beams of different energies, which can replace modulator wheel design. The majority of scattered radiation was found to be neutrons, and spectral powers for neutrons and photons were plotted, showing different distributions for different energy beams.
