Irradiator Commissioning and Dosimetry for Assessment of LQ α and β Parameters, Radiation Dosing Schema, and in vivo Dose Deposition
Published on: March 11, 2021
Abstract:
The results of investigations of combined radiation damages caused by external gamma-irradiation and internal irradiation with nuclear fission products are presented. Experiments were carried out under laboratory conditions and field conditions of nuclear explosions. The radiation damages of animals of high, medium and small degrees were observed. The questions of pathogenesis and clinic of combined radiation damages are treated and relative contributions of external and internal irradiations to the damages are presented.
