    Type of Ionising Radiation Gamma Rays Versus Electro

    MY9700883 A National Seminar on Application of Electron Accelerators, 4 August 1994 INTRODUCTION TO RADIATION CHEMISTRY OF POLYMER Khairul Zaman Hj. Mohd Dahlan Nuclear Energy Unit What is Radiation Chemistry? Radiation Chemistry is the study of the chemical effects of ionising radiation on matter. The ionising radiation flux in a radiation field may be expressed in terms of radiation intensity (i.e the roentgen). The roentgen is an exposure dose rather than absorbed dose. For radiation chemist, it is more important to know the absorbed dose i.e. the amount of energy deposited in the materials which is expressed in terms of Rad or Gray or in electron volts per gram. The radiation units and radiation power are shown in Table 1 and 2 respectively. Type of Ionising Radiation Gamma rays and electron beam are two commonly used ionising radiation in industrial process. Gamma rays, 1.17 and 1.33 MeV are emitted continuously from radioactive source such as Cobalt-60. The radioactive source is produced by bombarding Cobalt-59 with neutrons in a nuclear reactor or can be produced from burning fuel as fission products. Whereas, electrons are generated from an accelerator to produce a stream of electrons called electron beam. The energy of electrons depend on the type of machines and can vary from 200 keV to 10 MeV. Gamma Rays versus Electron Beam Gamma rays are electromagnetic radiation of very short wavelength about 0.01 A (0.001 nm) for a lMeV photon. It has a very high penetration power. Whereas, electrons are negatively charge particles which have limited penetration power.
  • Mechanistic Studies of the Desorption Ionization

    Mechanistic Studies of the Desorption Ionization

    Mechanistic studies of the desorption ionization process in fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry by Jentaie Shiea A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Chemistry Montana State University © Copyright by Jentaie Shiea (1991) Abstract: The mechanisms involved in Desorption Ionization (DI) continue to be a very active area of research. The answer to the question of how involatile and very large molecules are transferred from the condensed phase to the gas phase has turned out to involve many different phenomena. The effect on Fast Atom Bombardment (FAB) mass spectra of the addition of acids to analyte bases has been quantitatively investigated. Generally, the pseudomolecular ion (M+H+) intensity increased with the addition of acid, however, decreases in ion intensity were also noted. For the practical use of FAB, it is important to clarify the reasons for this acid effect. By critical evaluation, a variety of different explanations were found. However, contrary to other studies, no unambiguous example was found in which the effect of "preformed ions" could adequately explain the observed results. The mechanistic implications of these findings are briefly discussed. The importance of surface activity in FAB has been pointed out by many researchers. A systematic study was conducted, involving the addition of negatively charged surfactants to samples containing small organic and inorganic cations. An enhancement of the positive ion spectra of these analytes was observed. The study of mass transport processes of two surfactants was performed by varying the analyte concentration and matrix temperature in FAB. The study of the desorption process in SIMS by varying the viscosity of the matrix solutions shows that such studies may help to bridge the mechanisms in solid and liquid SIMS and, in the process, increase our understanding of both techniques.

  • Radiation Chemistry of Liquid Systems

    Radiation Chemistry of Liquid Systems

    Chapter 4 RADIATION CHEMISTRY OF LIQUID SYSTEMS Krzysztof Bobrowski Institute of Nuclear Chemistry and Technology, Dorodna 16, 03-195 Warszawa, Poland 1. INTRODUCTION The radiation chemistry of liquid systems illustrates a versatile use of high energy ionizing radiation [1-4]. Radiolysis, the initiation of reactions by high energy radiation, is a very valuable and powerful chemical tool for inducing and studying radical reactions in liquids. In many cases radiolysis offers a convenient and relatively easy way of initiating radical reactions in all phases (including liquid phase) that cannot be or can be performed with some limita- tions by chemical, electrochemical and photolytic methods. Radiolysis of most liquids produces solvated electrons and relatively simple free radicals, some of which can oxidize and/or reduce materials [5]. This chapter is divided into four main sections: “Introduction”, “Radiolysis of water”, “Radiolysis of or- ganic solvents”, and “Radiolysis of ionic liquids”. The fi rst section summa- rizes the mechanisms and features of radiation energy deposition along with a quantifi cation of chemical effects induced by radiation, and techniques used in radiation chemical studies. The second section focuses on radiation-induced radical reactions in water and aqueous solutions using low and high linear energy transfer (LET) irradiation at ambient and high temperatures, and high pressures. Relevant examples include radical reactions initiated by primary and secondary radicals from water radiolysis with a variety of compounds. The third section describes the most important features of radiolysis in organic liquids using common solvents for inducing and studying radical reactions. Relevant examples include radical reactions connected with the selective for- mation of radical cations, radical anions and excited states.

Te tractable history of life records a successive emergence of organisms composed of hierarchically organized cells and greater degrees of individuation. Te lowermost object level of this hierarchy is the cell, but it is unclear whether the organizational attributes of living systems extended backward through prebiotic stages of chemical evolution. If the systems biology attributes of the cell were indeed templated upon prebiotic synthetic relationships between subcellular objects, it is not obvious how to categorize object levels below the cell in ways that capture any hierarchies which may have preceded living systems.

In this context, great attention is paid to the class of interstellar molecules known as “Complex Organic Molecules” (COMs), considered as possible precursors of prebiotic species. Although COMs have already been detected in different astrophysical environments (such as interstellar clouds, protostars, and protoplanetary disks) and in comets, the physical–chemical mechanisms underlying their formation are not yet fully understood. In this framework, a unique contribution comes from laboratory experiments specifically designed to mimic the conditions found in space. We present Citation: Fulvio, D.; Potapov, A.; He, a review of experimental studies on the formation and evolution of COMs in the solid state, i.e., J.; Henning, T.
