Theoretical evaluation of the impact of diverse treatment conditions by calculation of the tumor control probability (TCP) of simulated cervical cancer Hyperthermia-Radiotherapy (H... by Sergio Mingo Barba, Adela Ademaj, Dietmar Marder, Oliver Riesterer, Marco Lattuada, Rudolf M. Füchslin, Alke Petri-Fink, Stephan Scheidegger

“…Furthermore, in the simulations, we showed that the TCP dependence on the temperature/time interval is more correlated with the mean value than with the minimum/maximum value and that comparing the treatment outcome with the mean temperature can be an excellent strategy for studying the time interval effect.Conclusion The use of thermoradiobiological models allows us to theoretically study the impact of varying thermal conditions on HT + RT treatment outcomes. …”

Luminescence of bound excitons created near sodium impurity ions in KCl:Na single crystals by K. Shunkeyev, А. Kenzhebayeva, A. Krasnikov, V. Nagirnyi, Sh Sagimbayeva, D. Sergeyev, А. Tilep, Zh Ubaev, A. Lushchik

“…The intensity of the X-ray luminescence (XRL) bands peaked at 2.8 and 3.1 eV (emission of recombinationally formed and relaxed ELFs) increases with both, the concentration of sodium impurity ions (10 → 1000 ppm) and the detection temperature (85 → 350 K). It is worth noting that at room temperature, the light yield of these XRL bands in KCl:Na practically coincides with that for the luminescence measured in the same way in classical scintillators, CsI and CsI:Na crystals. …”
