This is the second part of a review dealing with the development and current state-of-the-art
of lyoluminescence dosimetry. Readout equipment described in the review covers a range …

A technique, Photon Activation Therapy (PAT), is described in which high Linear Energy
Transfer (LET) radiations in the form of Auger electron distributions are generated by a photon …

The first part of the paper deals with the basic processes, physical and chemical, underlying
the phenomenon of lyoluminescence (LL) of irradiated materials particularly suited to …

This paper examines the use of the relative heights of TL glow peaks at equilibrium to obtain
information on the thermal and radiation history of materials. The theory of the method is …

Whole-body nitrogen was measured in man using a new technique of neutron-activation
analysis. Patients were irradiated with a small dose of fast neutrons and the capture γ rays …

THE technique of in vivo activation analysis has been used in the sequential study of whole-body
calcium 1 . Neutrons are produced by bombarding a lithium target with 10 MeV protons …

Some irradiated saccharides emit light when dissolved in water. Glucose, xylose and mannose
were selected as the most suitable materials for lyoluminescence dosimetry. Using 60 Co …

It has been reported that the dissolution of some irradiated solids in certain liquids results in
the emission of light. Accordingly, different materials were studied including γ-irradiated …

Lyoluminescent properties of mannose, glucose monohydrate, sucrose and trehalose
dihydrate were investigated from the point of view of suitability as dosimetric materials in a new …

WHEN some irradiated solids are dissolved in water or certain other solvents, a light emission
takes place which, following Wiedemann 1 , we call “lyoluminescence”. With inorganic …
