MEASURING THE IMPACT OF NUCLEAR INTERACTION IN PARTICLE THERAPY AND IN RADIO PROTECTION IN SPACE: THE FOOT EXPERIMENT

Measuring the Impact of Nuclear Interaction in Particle Therapy and in Radio Protection in Space: the FOOT Experiment

In Charged Particle Therapy (PT) proton or 12C beams are used to treat deep-seated solid tumors exploiting the advantageous characteristics of charged particles energy deposition in matter.For such projectiles, the maximum of the dose is released at the end of the beam range, in the Bragg peak region, where the tumour is located.However, the nuclea

Thermoregulation of Girolando cows during summertime, in Pernambuco State, Brazil - doi: 10.4025/actascianimsci.v35i2.16591

This work was carried out to evaluate the physiological thermoregulation responses of Girolando-breed KERATIN SHAMPOO dairy cows kept in feedlot during summertime.A total of 15 animals were used, belonging to three genetic groups: 1/2, 5/8 and 3/4 Holstein-Gir (HG), with five cows from each genetic group, distributed in a completely randomized desi
