From DNA Radiation Damage to Cell Death: Theoretical Approaches by Francesca Ballarini

“…In addition to “historical” approaches such as the Target Theory, the Linear-Quadratic model, the Theory of Dual Radiation Action and Katz' model, the more recent Local Effect Model was discussed, focusing on its application in Carbon-ion hadrontherapy. Furthermore, a mechanistic model developed at the University of Pavia and based on the relationship between cell inactivation and chromosome aberrations was presented, together with recent results; the good agreement between model predictions and literature experimental data on different radiation types (photons, protons, alpha particles, and Carbon ions) supported the idea that asymmetric chromosome aberrations like dicentrics and rings play a fundamental role for cell death. …”

The Study of Thermal Conditions on Weibel Instability by M. Mahdavi, H. Khanzadeh

“…Weibel electromagnetic instability has been studied analytically in relativistic plasma with high parallel temperature, where |α=(mc2/T∥)(1+p^⊥2/m2c2)1/2|≪1 and while the collision effects of electron-ion scattering have also been considered. According to these conditions, an analytical expression is derived for the growth rate of the Weibel instability for a limiting case of |ζ=α/2(ω′/ck)|≪1, where ω′ is the sum of the wave frequency of instability and the collision frequency of electrons with background ions. …”
