Geant4 Study Of A Gamma Ray Collimator For Proton Therapy, Selim Romero
Open Access Theses & Dissertations
This Thesis presents the results of an investigation of the use of collimators in proton therapy. The problem to solve is that in the proton therapy, we do not have the certainty if the target-tumor is receiving all the energy to destroy it or if we are really shooting at this one, so the remaining question is: where the beam is hitting? How to know it? to answer those questions our work has the propose of study proton therapy to determine where the proton interactions occur, these kinds of interactions usually produce gamma rays, and we simulated in GEANT4 the …
The Inverse And Direct Hofmeister Series Of Hen Egg White Lysozyme At Ph Below The Isoelectric Point (Pi) As Seen By Small Angle X-Ray Scattering(Saxs), Pawan Koirala
Open Access Theses & Dissertations
The structural changes of Hen Egg White Lysozyme (HEWL) in the intermediate stages leading up to Hofmeister anion-induced aggregation were measured using small-angle x-ray Scattering (SAXS). We used three concentrations of HEWL: 10mg/ml, 60mg/ml and 200mg/ml and two concentrations of salts: 0.1M and 1.0M, mostly in a Tris-buffer solution with a pH of 9.0. For 200mg/ml in Di-water solution, the scattering signal was best fit using an ellipsoidal form factor with equatorial radius of 28.4±0.1 Å and polar radius of 11.3±0.1 Å, and a screened Coulomb repulsive structure factor with an effective radius of 19.9±0.1 Å and protein surface charge …
