  1. 16. The Influence of Hydrogen on the Radiolytic Oxidation of UO2

    Författare :Niklas Hansson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; XPS; Dose-Rate; Radiolytic Oxidation; UO2; MOX; Hydrogen Effect;

    Sammanfattning : Spent nuclear fuel from the nuclear fuel cycle contains radiotoxic nuclides which must be safely stored for over 100 000 years. The Swedish final repository concept, KBS-3, is based on engineered and geological barriers that prevent the nuclear fuel from coming in contact with groundwater, which is the most credible vector to transport the radionuclides into the biosphere.

  2. 17. Oxidative dissolution of UO2 by α-radiolysis

    Författare :Niklas Hansson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; hydrogen effect; kinetics; MOX; α-radiolysis; dose rate; UO2; ε-particles;

    Sammanfattning : To prevent the spread of radiotoxic nuclides in the environment, spent nuclear fuel generated by decades of nuclear power operation must be safely stored for at least 100 000 years. The KBS-3 method is a highly developed deep geological repository concept and is the first final repository design for high-level nuclear waste to be constructed. LÄS MER

  3. 18. Biological effects of high energy radiation and ultra high dose rates

    Författare :Björn Zackrisson; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Radiobiology; 50 MV x-rays; 50 MeV electrons; in vitro; in vivo; RBE; OER; ultra high dose-rate; radiobiological models; model selection; models of stochastic processes;

    Sammanfattning : Recently a powerful electron accelerator, 50 MeV race-track microtron, has been taken into clinical use. This gives the opportunity to treat patients with higher x-ray and electron energies than before. Furthermore, treatments can be performed were the entire fractional dose can be delivered in parts of a second. LÄS MER

  4. 19. Treatment Planning of High Dose-Rate Brachytherapy - Mathematical Modelling and Optimization

    Författare :Björn Morén; Torbjörn Larsson; Åsa Carlsson Tedgren; Bram Gorissen; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Cancer is a widespread class of diseases that each year affects millions of people. It is mostly treated with chemotherapy, surgery, radiation therapy, or combinations thereof. High doserate (HDR) brachytherapy (BT) is one modality of radiation therapy, which is used to treat for example prostate cancer and gynecologic cancer. In BT, catheters (i. LÄS MER

  5. 20. Absorbed dose and biological effect in light ion therapy

    Författare :Malin Hollmark; Irena Gudowska; Oliver Jäkel; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Light ion therapy; absorbed dose calculation; analytical pencil beam model; Monte Carlo; radiobiological modeling; Radiological physics; Radiofysik; medicinsk strålningsfysik; Medical Radiation Physics;

    Sammanfattning : Radiation therapy with light ions improves treatment outcome for a number of tumor types. The advantageous dose distributions of light ion beams en-able exceptional target conformity, which assures high dose delivery to the tumor while minimizing the dose to surrounding normal tissues.
