Some of the greatest medical advancements in the modern age involve the use of many different types of radiation. Radiation therapy is used in treating multiple different types of cancer‚ and radiation from certain elements are put in X-ray tubes to save countless lives and prevent permanent injury wherever possible. Many organisations also use it for security‚ as well as the general use in the everyday home. These advancements and many more were based on the work of Marie Curie‚ renowned female

RADIATION DETECTION IN VEGETABLE LEAVES: A COMPARATIVE CASE STUDY IN COASTAL AND HINTERLAND REGIONS OF AKWA IBOM STATE BY Godfrey T. Akpabio‚ Ime E. Essien And Bassey E. Bassey. Department of Physics‚ University of Uyo‚ Uyo. ABSTRACT Radioactive radiation level was detected for five samples of vegetable leaves namely: Water leaf‚ Fluted Pumpkin‚ Editan Lasientera africana and Afang Gnetum africanum. These vegetable leaves were collected from Uyo (interland region) and Ibeno

Primary radiation is also known as direct radiation. * Secondary Radiation (aka Scatter radiation & Leakage Radiaiton) * Scatter Radiation – results whenever a diagnostic x-ray beam passes through matter. * Compton interactions between the x-ray photons and the electrons of the atoms within attenuating object deflect x-ray photons from their initial trajectories. * X-ray photons emerge from the object in all direction. * Leakage Radiation – radiation generated

Medical Center will provide me with the comprehensive training necessary to fulfill my aspirations. I am particularly fascinated in the field of radiation oncology. Watching as the physicians at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) cared for and interacted with their patients and‚ subsequently‚ investigated novel methods to optimize radiation therapy solidified my interest in this specialty. I am also interested in research

Electromagnetic radiation Electromagnetic radiation (EM radiation or EMR) is one of the fundamental phenomena of electromagnetism‚ propagating and traveling through space via photon wave particles‚ carrying radiant energy. In a vacuum‚ it propagates at a characteristic speed‚ the speed of light‚ normally in straight lines. EMR is emitted and absorbed by charged particles. As an electromagnetic wave‚ it has both electric and magnetic field components‚ which oscillate in a fixed relationship to one

The Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation Perhaps the most conclusive (and certainly among the most carefully examined) piece of evidence for the Big Bang is the existence of an isotropic radiation bath that permeates the entire Universe known as the "cosmic microwave background" (CMB). The word "isotropic" means the same in all directions; the degree of anisotropy of the CMB is about one part in a thousand. In 1965‚ two young radio astronomers‚ Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson‚ almost accidentally

My major academic and career goal is to attend college‚ and become a Radiation Therapist. My grandfather was diagnosed with stage four colon cancer when I was nine years old‚ and was put through various stages of radiation therapy. This sparked my interest in the medical field. Ultimately due to my enjoyment of working with people facing difficult circumstances and helping them through the rough times I came back to Radiation Therapy. While my grandfather was administered the therapy‚ he met truly

Blackbody radiation: a spectroscopic study John Greavu Partner: Nicholas Souhleris TA: Yilikal Ayino (Friday‚ Section 006) April 18‚ 2014 I. PRELAB A blackbody is a body that absorbs all electromagnetic radiation and emits a continuous spectrum‚ such as heated cavern with just a small opening to the outside world. In 1900‚ German physicist Max Planck derived an expression for this blackbody spectrum. Knowing that oscillators emit radiation‚ he assumed that oscillators within the cavern were

In this report‚ the absorption of heat in white‚ black and silver will be explored. Infrared radiation is invisible radiant energy‚ it lies between the visible light and the microwave portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. Heat is the main source of infrared energy‚ heat is produced by the movement of atoms and molecules. This experiment was conducted to investigate how black‚ white‚ and silver cans would absorb heat. The electromagnetic spectrum is made up of gamma rays‚ X-rays‚ ultraviolet‚
