Silicon detectors are being studied as microdosimeters since they can provide sensitive volumes of micrometric dimensions. They can be applied for assessing single event effects in electronic instrumentation exposed to complex fields around high-energy accelerators or in space missions. When coupled to tissue-equivalent converters, they can be used for measuring the quality of radiation...

Radiation-induced damage to living cells or genes is governed, to the greater part, by the pattern of inelastic interactions of ionizing particles in sub-cellular targets (segments of the DNA, nucleosomes, or segments of the chromosome fibre). In consequence, the effectiveness and quality of ionizing radiation should be defined more in terms of quantities which are directly related to the...
