Radiation effects in nematodes: results from IML-1 experiments.
The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans was exposed to natural space radiation using the ESA Biorack facility aboard Spacelab on International Microgravity Laboratory 1, STS-42. For the major experimental objective dormant animals were suspended in buffer or on agar or immobilized next to CR-39 plastic nuclear track detectors to correlate fluence of HZE particles with genetic events. This configu...
متن کامل1 20. Cosmic background radiation 20. COSMIC BACKGROUND RADIATION
The observed cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation provides strong evidence for the hot big bang. The success of pri-mordial nucleosynthesis calculations (see Sec. 16, " Big-bang nucle-osynthesis ") requires a cosmic background radiation (CBR) characterized by a temperature kT ∼ 1 MeV at a redshift of z ≃ 10 9. In their pioneering work, Gamow, Alpher, and Herman [1] realized this and pred...
متن کاملCosmic Needles versus Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation
It has been suggested by a number of authors that the 2.7K cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation might have arisen from the radiation from Population III objects thermalized by conducting cosmic graphite/iron needle-shaped dust. Due to lack of an accurate solution to the absorption properties of exceedingly elongated grains, in existing literature which studies the CMB thermalizing proces...

متن کاملThe Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation
These lectures will attempt to convey the excitement and promise in studies of the microwave radiation left over from the early universe. They are aimed at an audience of experimental high energy physicists. The first lecture will concentrate on how the radiation is characterized, how it and its anisotropies are generated, and the physics that it reveals. The second lecture will concentrate on ...
