Advanced Radiobiology (Paperback)

Paperback. Advanced Radiobiology: Beyond the Absorbed Dose is a critical, postgraduate-level textbook on the health physics of internal radionuclides. Contemporary radiation protection rests on absorbed dose (gray) and effective dose (sievert). That system works for many external beams. It fails-structurally-when the source is an internal emitter: chemical affinity for DNA, track localisation, sequential decays, and high-Z photoelectric enhancement are averaged away in a "bag of water." This volume rebuilds radiobiology around the European Committee on Radiation Risk (ECRR) 2026 model: biphasic low-dose behaviour, the Mueller (Mue) as genetic dose ( = N - E), evidence files (workers, fallout, nuclear sites, medical exposures, depleted uranium), multi-stressor precaution, and the legal duty of re-justification under European Basic Safety Standards. Includes computational protocols, an ICRP-versus-Mueller exhibit sheet, and statistical methods for expert use. For health physicists, medical physicists, researchers, and legal professionals who already know conventional radiobiology. Editor: Marco Saba. GeneForge AI Labs. Independent of the nuclear industry. Draws on Baatout (ed., Springer 2023, CC BY 4.0) and ECRR 2026. This item is printed on demand.
