Microdosimetric response of physical and biological systems to low- and high-LET radiations : theory and applications to dosimetry /

One of the aims of this book was to focus the attention of specialists to the diversity of the effects of the ionising radiation on biological and physical systems. Special emphasis has been placed on the exquisite complexities/differences introduced by high ionisation density versus low ionisation...
