PPT-Research plans investigating the radiobiology of protons and high-LET particles

Dr Jason Parsons Cancer Research Centre Department of Molecular and Clinical Cancer Medicine Current and future research goals Examine the radiobiology of protons and highLET particles RBE DNA damage complexity and repair. Hideki Yukawa. - 1935- Theorized that a particle passes back and forth between protons and neutrons to hold the nucleus together.. Predicted the existence of a particle called a . meson. (also known as pions). The meson was observed in 1947.. The Future of Cosmic Ray Research. .. 8 The Future of Cosmic Ray Research . As we have seen, a few cosmic rays can be detected with energies somewhat . greater . than 10. 20. . eV. . . These high energies must be due to particle accelerations . Which subatomic particles have a charge?. proton and electron. Which subatomic particles are the heaviest?. proton and neutron. Copper has 29 protons. If it has a +2 charge, how many electrons does it have?. : rays are high-energy photons, i.e. particles of electromagnetic radiation, like x-rays, but with higher energy, and more dangerous, with much greater penetrating power. x-rays in medical applicat Unit 11.

We know that most of the atom is actually . empty space filled with quickly moving electrons. .. The positive nucleus is so small it actually only takes up a tiny fraction of the size of the atom. Ironically, almost all of the atom’s mass is concentrated in this nucleus, which contains . Ms. Millimet. August 15, 2013. Walk in classroom silently.
