Nuclear Radiation Physics Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that studies particle beam therapy, neutron technologies, and radiation measurement.
AboutAbout the lab
Research on particle beams, neutrons, and radiation measurement.
The Nuclear Radiation Physics Lab lists as its research themes particle beam therapy, boron neutron capture therapy technology, PIXE research, and accelerators and radiation measurement.
Its research themes also include neutron diffraction and imaging, elemental analysis technology, and the development of neutron detectors.
In the official faculty introduction of Tohoku University, the lab is presented as the Nuclear Radiation Physics and Engineering field, a cooperating division of the Department of Quantum Science and Energy Engineering in the Graduate School of Engineering.
Key terms
- Particle beam therapy
- A type of radiation therapy that treats cancer by directing particle beams, such as protons or carbon ions, at the tumor
- Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT)
- A treatment in which cancer cells are made to take up boron and then irradiated with neutrons, destroying the cells from the inside
- PIXE (particle-induced X-ray emission)
- An analytical method in which a sample is irradiated with a particle beam and the elements it contains are identified from the X-rays it emits
ResearchResearch themes
