Effect of Ionizing Radiation on Biological Structures

摘要: This chapter introduces the reader with basic provisions of effects ionizing radiation on biological objects. The physical, physicochemical, chemical, and stages processes are considered. Absorption a negligible amount energy causes grave shock to an organism or even its death. It means that in action radiation, quantization absorption probabilistic nature events play very important role. Ionizing can directly act objects but indirect is much stronger. by-stander effect manifested radiation. Exposure considered example survival curves cells organisms. Particular attention paid health radon.
