Content: This is the second edition of the Medical and Dental Guidance Notes (MDGN), created by an IPEM working group. Following publication of the first edition in 2002, this edition addresses the safe use of ionising radiations (e.g., radioactive substances, x-rays, protons, neutrons, and electron beams) in the UK but does not address lasers, MRI, ultrasound, ultraviolet, or other non-ionising radiations. These notes include general best practices of the Ionising Radiation (Medical Exposure) Regulations (IR(ME)R) 2017, but they do not repeat or interpret legal requirements and guidance in the legislation. Topics covered include safe diagnostic x-ray procedures, radiotherapy, nuclear medicine, positron emission tomography, and radioactive substance contingency planning. Following the instructions is optional but should be enough to comply with the law. Legally responsible parties should familiarise themselves with the legislation through this means. Part of IPEM-IOP Series in Physics and Engineering in Medicine and Biology.

Content: The benefits of particle therapy (PT), stemming from its physical and radiobiological advantages, necessitate the use of dedicated imaging technologies and approaches to ensure precise treatment planning and delivery. This book endeavors to establish a fundamental understanding of imaging within the context of PT, alongside exploring current research and clinical perspectives on its role. The focus is directed towards examining near-room, in-room, and in-beam technologies, both those already in clinical use and those in the developmental stage, which play pivotal roles in treatment planning, delivery, and verification processes, enabling adjustments either offline or online. Concurrently, the text addresses methodological solutions derived from these imaging modalities to effectively address challenges such as range uncertainties, anatomical variations, and biological properties, thereby enhancing the accuracy of treatment modeling and adaptation.

Uniform Title: Airborne radioactive discharges and human health effects

Content: Across the world we are seeing a resurgence in new nuclear including both large traditional plants and Small / Advanced Nuclear Reactors (SMRs / AMRs) as a key part of tackling the climate crisis. The scale of the new build ambitions, coupled with increasing demand throughout the nuclear fuel cycle and high average age of the existing qualified and experienced workforce has created a concern of further skills gaps. One of the key 'skills' gaps relates to the field of radiological protection in particular modelling and measuring doses accrued by the public under both normal operational discharges and accident scenarios, along with the increasing importance on understanding the wider impacts to the environment. This book is an essential introduction to basic principles of radiation protection, aerosol physics and the impacts of radioactive discharges to both humans and the environment (flora and fauna). Also discussed are the specific difficulties with the monitoring and the health detriment associated with the more mobile and problematic radionuclides.

Content: The book sets the stage for nonlinear ultrasonic guided waves by introducing nonlinear wave propagation in 1D and the fundamental mathematical and continuum mechanics background necessary for the nonlinear wave propagation physics. It develops the so-called internal resonance criteria and its application to different guided wave types. An important and unique aspect covered is the selection of primary wave modes and frequencies for cumulative second harmonic generation and wave mixing. Numerical simulations will demonstrate the results of effective selection choices. Experimental methods and signal processing are critical for detecting the subtle results of nonlinearity. Finally, the author provides perspective on the future development of nonlinear ultrasonic guided wave methods for nondestructive evaluation.

Series Statement: [IOP release $release]

Content: Hydrogen is the first element on the periodic table and forms around 75% of matter in the universe. It is also the primary component of the Sun. It is of interest to scientists on both a small and large scale, from quantum mechanics to cosmology. This book explores the journey of hydrogen from element to condensed matter with exotic physical properties and enormous technological promise as clean energy source and energy carrier. The first half of the book covers the physics of hydrogen and the second half covers the various uses of hydrogen. This book is suitable for advanced undergraduate, postgraduate and doctoral students of hydrogen science and technology, and renewable energies.
