In order to verify space heavy particles being main cause (in addition, microgravity, vacuum, magnetic field etc.) of induced biological effects in space and in order to study correlation of various mutation and its serious degree with different particle parameters, measurement and identification of the particles are necessary. CR-39 sheets are a part of a sandwich detecting system. The system consists of rice seeds and CR-39 solid state nuclear track detectors. The seeds hit by space particles could be determined withetched tracks in CR-39. Furthermore, the space heavy particles could be identified with measured parameters of the tracks such as residual range and etch rate.展开更多

The system consisted of 3 boards of rice seeds (1# and 2# for Qinghua non-glutinous rice and 3# for Pearl early rice, Huiyang) and 10 layers of solid state nuclear track detectors (CR-39) in sandwich (Fig.1). It was loaded in space shuttle Shenzhou 3 (at astronaut seat) in the last 10-day period of March, 2002.展开更多

Range of the ions in the seeds is about 11 mm. They can enter the seed from its embryo, come out from its top, and penetrate through an entire grain of wheat, length of which is about 6～7 mm. The seeds were vertically inserted in a sample plate of 4 cm in diameter, which can contain about 100 grain of the seeds. During irradiation, the embryo of the seeds faced to ion beams and was irradiated at normal temperature and atmosphere. Irradiation dose was arranged in 1×10^7, 5×10^7, 1×10^8, 2×10^8 and 5×10^8 ions/cm^2 with dose rate of about 3 Gy/min. A part of the irradiated seeds was employed for cytology examination in laboratory, the others were used for breeding in the fields.展开更多

Average LET in plateau of Bragg curve of the ions was 120 keV/μm. Irradiation dose was 40, 60, 80, 100, 150 Gy for leguminous herbage and 15, 20, 30, 40, 50 Gy for grass herbage. Dose rate of irradiation was 3 Gy/min. Irradiation was carried out in atmosphere. Some of irradiated seeds were sown in the fields and others were used to do experiments for cytology.展开更多

Additional superiority to tumor treatment from a radioactive ion beam (RIB) is emphatically discussed. The experimental research of the radioactive 9C-ion beams aimed at tumor treatment at Heavy Ion Medical Accelerator in Chiba (HIMAC), National Institute of Radiological Sciences (NIRS), Japan is described in detail, La-eluding production of the beams, optimization of parameters, distribution of depth dose, survival effect of cell and comparison of RBE between 9C- and 12C-beams. Results show that under 40 mm thick Beryllium target and 10 mm thick aluminum degrader at full (5%) momentum acceptance, the production rate and purity of the produced 9C-beams are 9.07×10-6 and 82.88% respectively with the primary 12C-beams of 430 MeV/u and 1.8×109 pps. A uniform irradiation field with homogeneity up to 89.6% inside central area 10 mm in diameter is obtained by using spot scanning. In this case, the dose rate at the entrance is 0.5 Gy/h. In survival experiment of cells, the average relative biological effectiveness (RBE) of 9C-beams is 5.28 and 2.93 for 12C-beams in the region around Bragg peak. The RBE of 9C-beams is 1.8 times higher than that of 12C-beams. It indicates that cell-killing efficiency of 9C-beams is stronger than that of 12C-beams. 9C-beams are more efficacious for tumor treatment than 12C-beams.展开更多
