radiation effects
11Radiation burn — Classification and external resources ICD 9 990 …
12Radiation protection — Radiation protection, sometimes known as radiological protection, is the science of protecting people and the environment from the harmful effects of ionizing radiation, which includes both particle radiation and high energy electromagnetic… …
13Radiation chemistry — is a subdivision of nuclear chemistry which is the study of the chemical effects of radiation on matter; this is very different from radiochemistry as no radioactivity needs to be present in the material which is being chemically changed by the… …
14Radiation dose reconstruction — refers to the process of estimating radiation doses that were received by individuals or populations in the past as a result of particular exposure situations of concern.[1] The basic principle of radiation dose reconstruction is to characterize… …
15Radiation induced cognitive decline — Radiation Induced Cognitive DeclineRadiation therapy is used mainly in the treatment of cancer. Usually it is recommended to apply radiation to cancerous tumors in areas that are difficult for chemotherapy to reach. Thus radiation therapy has… …
16Radiation damage — is a term associated with ionizing radiation.CausesThis radiation may take several forms: *Cosmic rays and subsequent energetic particles caused by their collision with the atmosphere and other materials. *Radioactive daughter products… …
17Radiation — Radiation, as in physics, is energy in the form of waves or moving subatomic particles emitted by an atom or other body as it changes from a higher energy state to a lower energy state. Radiation can be classified as ionizing or non ionizing… …
18Radiation pressure — is the pressure exerted upon any surface exposed to electromagnetic radiation. If absorbed, the pressure is the energy flux density divided by the speed of light. If the radiation is totally reflected, the radiation pressure is doubled.For… …
19Radiation damping — in accelerator physics is a way of reducing the beam emittance of a high velocity beam of charged particles. More specifically, it reduces the momentum spread of the particles making up the beam.There are two main ways of using radiation damping… …
20Radiation scattering — is the deflection of radiation (electromagnetic or products of nuclear decay) from its original path as a result of interaction or collisions with atoms, molecules, or larger particles in the atmosphere or other media between the source of… …
