چکیده

Proton therapy is a treatment modality which can deliver dose precisely to cancer tumor in comparison photon therapy, However, study about the biological effect of proton are not well known. In this study, simulation bombardment with energy 110 MeV water conducted using Geant4 software. The selection as object due majority human body consisted water. Water molecule cube shaped 10 x cmand surrounded by PMMA material 0.5 cm thickness. From results, it be seen that <2% neutrons particle formed interaction particles material. Small neutron dangerous for because has high effectiveness and thus even small absorbed might cause negative side effects patient.

Angular dependence of the sputtering yield of water ice by 100 keV proton bombardment

We measured the total sputtering yield of amorphous water ice for 100 keV H as a function of the projectile incidence angle, and the angular distribution of the ejected H2O and O2 molecules, using a quartz-crystal microbalance and mass spectrometry, respectively, at temperatures of 20 K and 100 K. The total sputtering yield follows a cos h dependence, with f ffi 1.3, regardless of the irradiati...

Neutron–proton Pairs in Nuclei

A review is given of attempts to describe nuclear properties in terms of neutron–proton pairs that are subsequently replaced by bosons. Some of the standard approaches with low-spin pairs are recalled but the emphasis is on a recently proposed framework with pairs of neutrons and protons with aligned angular momentum. The analysis is carried out for general j and applied to N = Z nuclei in the ...

Assessment of The Relation Between Energy Of Primary Protons And Undesired Neutron Dose During Proton Therapy By Monte Carlo Method

Introduction: High-energy beams of protons offer significant advantages for the treatment of deepseated local tumors. Their physical depth-dose distribution in tissue is characterized by a small entrance dose and a distinct maximum -Bragg peak- near the end of range with a sharp fall-off at the distal edge. Alongside its advantages there are some point that they need to meticul...

simulation and experimental studies for prediction mineral scale formation in oil field during mixing of injection and formation water

abstract: mineral scaling in oil and gas production equipment is one of the most important problem that occurs while water injection and it has been recognized to be a major operational problem. the incompatibility between injected and formation waters may result in inorganic scale precipitation in the equipment and reservoir and then reduction of oil production rate and water injection rate. ...

Water alignment, dipolar interactions, and multiple proton occupancy during water-wire proton transport.

A discrete multistate kinetic model for water-wire proton transport is constructed and analyzed using Monte Carlo simulations. In the model, each water molecule can be in one of three states: oxygen lone-pairs pointing leftward, pointing rightward, or protonated (H(3)O(+)). Specific rules for transitions among these states are defined as protons hop across successive water oxygens. Our model al...
