The study of X-ray-induced mutations The white gene is becoming one of the main test objects in the study of the problem of direct and reverse mutation of its alleles under the action of X-ray radiation [1], and later under the action of neutrons and γ-radiation [2] on such biological objects as Drosophila melanogaster. Moreover, at present, Drosophila is used as a model object in the study of...
The use of a specific technique and type of radiation in radiotherapy of tumors is determined by various factors: the localization of the tumor in the body, its oxygenation, the stage of the disease, the availability of the technique for the patient, etc. The study of damage in the DNA structure under the influence of different types of radiation and with varying irradiation conditions provide...
The main goal of radiation therapy is to irradiate the target with a given dose while maximizing the protection of healthy tissues and organs. According to the theoretical data from radiobiology and the ICRU recommendations, to achieve the maximum results of radiation therapy, dose delivery with an accuracy of 3-5% is required [1]. The dosimetric effect of devices external to the patient is a...
Abstract
Calcium, sodium, potassium, zinc, magnesium etc & all other ion channels carry vital biological functions with respective signaling playing great role in plasma, heart beats, dopamine & many other functions either directly by particle, ions or by their waves. There are three main types of ion channels, i.e., voltage-gated, extracellular ligand-gated, and intracellular ligand-gated...

The discovery of solar and atmospheric neutrino oscillations means that at least two of three neutrino mass states are nonzero. The oscillation parameters and the...
Astrophysical r-process is considered to be the main source of neutron-rich isotopes beyond the iron peak and, therefore, poses a great interest to modern nuclear physics. It takes place in stellar medium at temperatures above 1 GK and very high densities that can be reached in extreme scenarios,such as supernova explosions or neutron star and black hole collisions. Computer simulations of the...
Hadron therapy is efficient method of cancer treatment due to phenomenon of the Bragg peak which cause precise localization of the dose absorbed by biological tissues [1, 2]. It improves quality of life of a patient minimizing action of therapeutic beam on healthy part of body. Transversal scattering of the beam is less than that for other kinds of radiotherapy.
Hadron therapy has some...
Abstract-
The performance of pure boron, boron carbide, high-density carbon and boron nitride ablators—the material that surrounds a fusion fuel and couples with the laser or hohlraum radiation in an experiment—in the polar direct drive exploding pusher (PDXP) platform. The platform uses the polar direct drive configuration to drive high ion temperatures in a room-temperature capsule and has...
Abstract-
Four outstanding multiple burials were discovered near Eulau, Germany. The 4,600-year-old graves contained groups of adults and children buried facing each other. Skeletal and artifactual evidence and the simultaneous interment of the individuals suggest the supposed families fell victim to a violent event. In a multidisciplinary approach, archaeological, anthropological,...
Monetary system in ancient time was a challenging task, influenced by economic crisis, availability of metal sources and monetary reforms. In particular, the Ag content of the currency minted for about sixty years by the Antoninii emperors reflected the economic health or crisis of the Roman Empire. At the beginning, the Antoninianus denomination was a silver-rich coin (up to 80% of Ag), but...
The problem of actinides and radionuclides migration, distribution, and concentration process in objects of environment and bioobjects stay of one of the importance and actual. There are the samples of drinking water, soil, roots, and the leaf of hydrophyte “Pistia stratiotes”, the teeth of patients (72) with odontogenic inflammatory diseases, and patients' kidney stones (54) with urolithiasis...
The main share of oncological diseases of the lungs and bronchi is caused by radon isotopes and their daughter decay products [1], therefore, the study of radiation damage to biological objects from radon isotopes 219Rn, 220Rn, 222Rn and their decay products is an urgent task. In Kazakhstan, lung cancer is in second place (10.4%) among oncological diseases.
The aim of this work was to...
