Published in 2019 at "Journal of hazardous materials"

DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2018.09.080

Abstract: Neutron radiation can deteriorate mechanical properties of the concrete materials, and thus it is questionable that neutron transport properties of concrete can remain unchanged during the life span of biological shielding walls. one-speed neutron diffusion… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Progress in Nuclear Energy"

DOI: 10.1016/j.pnucene.2021.103954

Abstract: Abstract Exposure to neutron radiation can cause serious health problems, especially in nuclear power plants and their surroundings, high-flying aircrafts, and healthcare facilities. Conventionally, many neutron-shielding materials are used for protection, but their mechanical and… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Scientific Reports"

DOI: 10.1038/srep41013

Abstract: Aviation and space applications can benefit significantly from lightweight organic electronics, now spanning from displays to logics, because of the vital importance of minimising payload (size and mass). It is thus crucial to assess the… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Radiation research"

DOI: 10.1667/rade-24-00243.1

Abstract: High-energy neutron radiation (HENR) induces severe cellular and tissue damage, yet effective prophylactic agents remain limited. In this study, the TLR2/NOD2 co-agonist CL429 was evaluated for its radioprotective potential against 14.1 MeV neutron exposure. A… read more here.
