  3. 2. The role of nuclear energy

    University essay from Högskolan i Gävle/Energisystem och byggnadsteknik

    Author : Ali Ayoub; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The societies in Europe have developed enormously in recent decades, and this in turn has led to a greater need for electricity. Large parts of society are electrified and are now one of the most essential parts of the system. READ MORE

  4. 3. Models for estimating radiation dose and LAR from radioactive fallout: extended dose algorithms for the computational tool LARCalc

    University essay from

    Author : Jonathan Sundström; [2022-09-09]
    Keywords : Medical physics; Nuclear power plant; Radiation dose; Effective dose; Lifetime attributable risk; LAR; Fallout; Inhalation; Strontium-90; Iodine-131; Cloudshine;

    Abstract : Today, emergency preparedness is needed against both nuclear reactor accidents and nuclear weapons fallout. Both scenarios can lead to exposure of ionizing radiation. Upon exposure, radionuclides will incur a radiation dose both internally and externally. READ MORE

  5. 4. A comparison between LiF, Al2O3 and NaCl pellets for luminescence dosimetry based on clinical and laboratory measurements

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Sjukhusfysikerutbildningen

    Author : Edita Solak; [2021]
    Keywords : Medicine and Health Sciences;

    Abstract : Radiation protection is of importance for the general public, patients and personnel in many different situations: rare accidents involving ionizing radiation, medical examinations or work tasks in the medical clinic or nuclear industry to name a few. Optimization in radiation protection and limitation of radiation doses are essential to prevent overexposure and for reducing negative health consequences. READ MORE

  6. 5. Improved methodology for postulated fuel handling accident

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för byggvetenskaper; Lunds universitet/Hållfasthetslära
