Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDose Response and Optical Properties of Dyed Poly Vinyl Alcohol-Trichloroacetic Acid Polymeric Blends Irradiated with Gamma-RaysSusilawati, Aris DoyanProblem statement: The effects of gamma irradiation on optical properties of cresol-red dyed Poly Vinyl Alcohol (PVA) blended with Trichloroacetic Acid (TCA) for possible use in dosimetry and measurement of radiation dose in gamma rays have been studied using both Raman spectroscopy and UV-Visible spectrophotometer method. Approach: The dosimeters are composed of Poly Vinyl Alcohol (PVA), Trichloroacetic Acid (TCA) at … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2009 · 8,088 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsExtragalactic Diffuse Cascade Emission as a Probe of Processes in Active Galactic NucleiAnna Vladimir UrysonIn this study, we discuss possible imprint of source characteristics on extragalactic diffuse cascade emission that is initiated by ultra-high energy cosmic rays propagating through the universe. The common opinion is that cosmic ray sources are active galactic nuclei. Based on cascade emission analyses we demonstrate that possibly a new subclass of cosmic ray sources exists, a particle flux from … …Space Science International, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 25 Feb 2024 · 8,382 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffects of Total Ionizing Dose on Bipolar Junction TransistorChee Fuei Pien, Haider F. Abdul Amir, Saafie Salleh, Azali MuhammadProblem statement: The amount of ionizing radiation that Bipolar Junction Transistor (BJT) devices encounter during their lifecycle degrades both of their functional and electrical parameter performances. The different radiation environments either in space, high energy physics experiments, nuclear environment or fabrication process as well as for standard terrestrial operation possess an impact on the devices. Approach: In this research, analytical … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,311 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsGamma Radiosensitivity Study on Chili (Capsicum annuum)Shairul Rizdiyandi Omar, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Shaharudin Saamin, Nik Muhamad Ab. MajidInduced mutation by gamma irradiation has been found to be a very useful technique for crop improvement. Apart from this, the proper use of induced mutation in plant breeding has become a profitable approach. This investigation was carried out to determine the LD50 and effect of gamma rays on germination, plant height, survival percentage, root length, root dry weight and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2008 · 9,033 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsGamma Radiosensitivity Study on Long Bean (Vigna sesquipedalis)Ellyfa Kon, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Shaharudin Saamin, Nik Muhamad Ab. MajidThis study was conducted to determine the LD50 and effect of gamma ray on germination percentage, plant height, survival percentage, root length, root dry weight and shoot dry weight of seedlings derived from seeds of long bean (Vigna sesquipedalis). Seeds of this crop were treated with 300, 400, 500, 600 and 800 Gy gamma rays at Malaysian Institute of Nuclear … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2007 · 8,596 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsInfluence of Drought Stress on Growth and Yield of Soybean (Glycine max L.) Genotypes in Northern GhanaIsaac Kwahene Addai, Alhassan Bawa, Maganoba CharlesStudies on induced mutation were conducted and the results indicated that stable, but desirable soybean mutant genotypes with improved agronomic traits have been produced. A series of evaluations of these mutant genotypes had earlier on been carried out and high-yielding ones such as 150, 200, 250, and 300 Gy have been identified. In the present study, the above genotypes were … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 1 Jun 2023 · 6,777 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAcceleration and Particle Field Interactions of Cosmic Rays: FormalismA. Tawfik, A. Saleh, M.T. Ghoneim, A.A. HadyThe origin and acceleration theories of Ultrah High Energy Cosmic Rays (UHECRs) are still mesterious problem in modern physics and astrophysics. The acceleration of ultra high energy cosmic rays is conjectured to occur through interactions with electromagnetic fields in different astrophysical objects, like magnetic matter clumps, besides the well-known shock waves and elastic Fermi mechanisms. Based on this model, a … …Physics International, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 18 May 2013 · 7,458 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Gamma Radiation on Oil Quality of Dried Mint LeavesAbd El-Rahman Abd El-Raouf Ahmed, Gamal Kamal Arafa, Helmy El-Sayed Hassan, Hend Nabil MohamedThe green mint crop is considered a medicinal and aromatic plant grown in most of Egypt's governors and it has multiple uses, whether it is used fresh or dried or mint oil is extracted from it and mint is also known as its medicinal importance as research has proven that it has many health benefits. This research was conducted to … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 25 May 2020 · 7,465 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractProblems of Ultra-High Energy Cosmic RaysAnna V. UrysonCosmic rays are energetic particles coming to the Earth from space. They bombard the atmosphere producing cascades of particles that spread over a large area when they reach the ground. Cosmic ray energies vary in the wide band from about 108 eV up to few 1020 eV. It is established that most particles with energies of ~ (108-109) eV come … …Space Science International, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 6 Dec 2014 · 13,854 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTHE ELECTRICAL PROPERTIES OF Mg-Cu-Zn FERRITES IRRADIATED BY γ-RAYS OF 60Co SOURCEMohamed Eltabey, H. Ebrahim Hassan, Ismail Abd Elrahim AliFerrite samples with chemical formula MgxCu0.5-xZn0.5Fe2O4 (x = 0.0, 0.2 and 0.4) was prepared by the conventional ceramic method. The enhanced changes in the dc/ac resistivity and the dielectric constant due to γ-rays irradiation by 60Co source were measured using the two probes technique. The samples showed decreasing of their resistivity at room temperature after irradiation for both dc and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 10 Dec 2013 · 7,478 accessesView PDFCite
