Gamma Dose Rate Measurement and Dose Rate Calculation for Sensitive Organs in the Vicinity of Hot Springs in Kerman Province
Introduction: All of the people worldwide are exposed to low levels of radiation. Cancer induction and genetic disorders are among the hazards of low level exposure. In some cases, radiation close to hot springs is higher than normal areas due to a high concentration and the decay products of Ra-226. Given the use of hot springs by the general public because of their therapeutic p...
متن کاملEffects of N-acetylcysteine on life shortening induced by chronic low dose-rate gamma-ray exposure in mice
Background: The development of methods to alleviate radiation-induced health effects is important for the practical use of radiation therapy and for understanding the molecular mechanisms mediating these effects. Here, we examined the protective capability of N-acetylcysteine (NAC) on life-shortening effects induced by continuous low dose-rate gamma-ray exposure in mice. Materials and Methods: ...
متن کاملGamma Radiation Measurement due to Natural Radioactivity in Hot Water Spring of Behbahan
Introduction: Many people use hot water springs to treat some diseases, such as rheumatism, arthritis, and skin diseases, but they are unaware of the presence of natural radioactive substances that may be found in hot water springs. An effective way to understand the radiation risk of these elements are measuring the dose rate of radiation. In this study, for the first time, ga...
متن کاملGamma-ray localization of terrestrial gamma-ray flashes.
Terrestrial gamma-ray flashes (TGFs) are very short bursts of high-energy photons and electrons originating in Earth's atmosphere. We present here a localization study of TGFs carried out at gamma-ray energies above 20 MeV based on an innovative event selection method. We use the AGILE satellite Silicon Tracker data that for the first time have been correlated with TGFs detected by the AGILE Mi...
متن کاملTerrestrial Ozone Depletion Due to a Milky Way Gamma-Ray Burst
Based on cosmological rates, it is probable that at least once in the last gigayear the Earth has been irradiated by a gamma-ray burst (GRB) in our Galaxy from within 2 kpc. We have performed the first detailed computation of the effects on the Earth’s atmosphere of one such impulsive event: A 10 s 100 kJ m 2 burst penetrates to the stratosphere causing globally averaged ozone depletion of 35%,...
