This review describes the PARTRAC suite of comprehensive Monte Carlo simulation tools
for calculations of track structures of a variety of ionizing radiation qualities and their …

High-energy protons and carbon ions exhibit an inverse dose profile allowing for increased
energy deposition with penetration depth. Additionally, heavier ions like carbon beams have …

The fate of nanomaterials with different sizes and charges in mitotic cells is of great
importance but seldom explored. Herein we investigate the intracellular fate of negatively …

PURPOSE: We tested whether the chromosomal radiosensitivity of in vitro irradiated
lymphocytes could be used to predict the risk of acute reactions after radiotherapy …

Heavy-ion radiobiology is attracting increasing interest for its implications in radiation
oncology and space radiation protection. The analysis of chromosome aberrations induced …

A Monte Carlo simulation model for DNA repair via the non-homologous end-joining
pathway has been developed. Initial DNA damage calculated by the Monte Carlo track …
