  • Radioactivity and X-Rays
    Radioactivity and X-rays Applications and health effects by Thormod Henriksen Preface The present book is an update and extension of three previous books from groups of scientists at the University of Oslo. The books are: I. Radioaktivitet – Stråling – Helse Written by; Thormod Henriksen, Finn Ingebretsen, Anders Storruste and Erling Stranden. Universitetsforlaget AS 1987 ISBN 82-00-03339-2 I would like to thank my coauthors for all discussions and for all the data used in this book. The book was released only a few months after the Chernobyl accident. II. Stråling og Helse Written by Thormod Henriksen, Finn Ingebretsen, Anders Storruste, Terje Strand, Tove Svendby and Per Wethe. Institute of Physics, University of Oslo 1993 and 1995 ISBN 82-992073-2-0 This book was an update of the book above. It has been used in several courses at The University of Oslo. Furthermore, the book was again up- dated in 1998 and published on the Internet. The address is: www.afl.hitos.no/mfysikk/rad/straling_innh.htm III. Radiation and Health Written by Thormod Henriksen and H. David Maillie Taylor & Francis 2003 ISBN 0-415-27162-2 This English written book was mainly a translation from the books above. I would like to take this opportunity to thank David for all help with the translation. The three books concentrated to a large extent on the basic properties of ionizing radiation. Efforts were made to describe the background ra- diation as well as the release of radioactivity from reactor accidents and fallout from nuclear explosions in the atmosphere. These subjects were of high interest in the aftermath of the Chernobyl accident.

  • University-Industry Partnership in the Vanguard of Knowledge-Driven Economy Others As Dialectic/Logic, Grammar, Rhetoric Belonged to Trivium (Three Programs)
    Journal of Modern Education Review, ISSN 2155-7993, USA July 2014, Volume 4, No. 7, pp. 480–509 Doi: 10.15341/jmer(2155-7993)/07.04.2014/002 Academic Star Publishing Company, 2014 http://www.academicstar.us University-industry Partnership in the Vanguard of Knowledge-Driven Economy László Szentirmai, László Radács (Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, University of Miskolc, Hungary) Abstract: The words volt, ampere and watt are named after emblematic figures of university and industry and are in common parlance among people. And what is more, the current International System of Units gave many great names to derived measuring units. The 5–10 year-long strategic partnership is top priority for elite universities. This most creative and promising collaboration ensures big and common strategic goals, and shared research vision. New knowledge generated by alliance modernizes university role and industry long-term strategy. Diverse engineering culture serves as brake but could be overcome by both parties when criterion is excellence. Trend is twofold: either richer benefits are given to fewer universities and/or universities in emerging economies are also to flourish. Operational partnerships — the second type — are based on joint research projects utilizing both the core academic strengths of universities and the core research competence of industry. Research projects on professors’ own initiatives and students’ individual research projects all pave the way for achieving strategic partnership. Transactional partnership — the third type — puts significant impact on teaching and learning. Key criteria include multidisciplinary institute on campus with industry contribution, even culture and curriculum and multidisciplinary approach to research. These criteria together with industrial practice for academics and students lead also this link to strategic collaboration.

  • Nuclear Glossary 2007-06
    Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe Technik und Umwelt GLOSSARY OF NUCLEAR TERMS Winfried Koelzer © Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe GmbH, Karlsruhe, April 2001 Postfach 3640 · 76021 Karlsruhe, Germany Original title: Lexikon zur Kernenergie, ISBN 3-923704-32-1 Translation by Informationskreis KernEnergie The reproduction of trade names, identifications, etc. in this glossary does not justify the assumption that such names may be considered free in the sense- of the laws regulating the protection of trade marks and brands and that therefore they may be used by everyone. No guarantee is given for the correctness of numerical data. Pictures by: Argonne National Lab., Argonne Aulis-Verlag Deubner & Co., Cologne Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe, Karlsruhe Informationskreis Kernenergie, Bonn A Absorbed dose The absorbed dose D is the quotient of the average energy transferred to the matter in a volume element by ionizing radiation and the mass of the matter in this volume element: _ d ε D = . dm The unit of the absorbed dose is joule divided by kilogram (J·kg-1) and its special unit name is gray (Gy). The former unit name was rad (symbol: rd or rad).1 Gy = 100 rd; 1 rd = 1/100 Gy. Absorbed dose rate Quotient of absorbed dose per unit of time. Unit: Gy/h. Absorber Any material "stopping" ionizing radiation. Alpha radiation can already be totally absorbed by a sheet of paper; beta radiation is absorbed by a few centimetres of plastic material or 1 cm of aluminium. Materials with a high →atomic number and high density are used for gamma radiation absorbers (lead, steel, concrete, partially with special additions). Neutron absorbers such as boron, hafnium and cadmium are used in control rods for reactors.

  • Louis Harold Gray
    Springer Biographies Louis Harold Gray A Founding Father of Radiobiology SINCLAIR WYNCHANK Springer Biographies The books published in the Springer Biographies tell of the life and work of schol- ars, innovators, and pioneers in all fi elds of learning and throughout the ages. Prominent scientists and philosophers will feature, but so too will lesser known personalities whose signifi cant contributions deserve greater recognition and whose remarkable life stories will stir and motivate readers. Authored by historians and other academic writers, the volumes describe and analyse the main achievements of their subjects in manner accessible to nonspecialists, interweaving these with salient aspects of the protagonists’ personal lives. Autobiographies and memoirs also fall into the scope of the series.

  • Bq = Becquerel Gy = Gray (Sv = Sievert)
    Louis Harold Gray He is honored by call- ing the physical dose Bq = becquerel unit "gray*" – abbrevi- Gy = gray ated Gy (Sv = sievert) Photo from 1957 Chapter 5 Activity and Dose The activity of a radioactive source When an atom disintegrates, radiation is emitted. If the rate of disintegrations is large, the radioactive source is considered to have a high activity. The unit for the activity of a radioactive source was named after Becquerel (abbreviated Bq) and is defined as: 1 Bq = 1 disintegration per sec. In a number of countries, the old unit, the curie (abbreviated Ci and named after Marie and Pierre Curie) is still used. The curie-unit was defined as the activity in one gram of radium. The number of disintegrations per second in one gram of radium is 37 billion. The relation between the curie and the becquerel is given by: 1 Ci = 3.7 • 1010 Bq The accepted practice is to give the activity of a radioactive source in becquerel. This is because Bq is the unit chosen for the system of international units (SI-units). But one problem is that the numbers in becquerel are always very large. Consequently the activity is given in kilo (103), mega (106), giga (109)and tera (1012) becquerel. If a source is given in curies the number is small. For example; when talking about radioactivity in food products, 3,700 Bq per kilogram of meat is a large number and consequently considered to be dangerous. If however, the same activity is given in Ci, it is only 0.0000001 curie per kilogram – "nothing to worry about?".
