Radiative mathematics

Course Description: Ionizing radiation is a natural part of our environment, present in space and on Earth as terrestrial radiation. Humans utilize it in various ways for scientific, industrial, and medical applications, including diagnostics and therapeutics. A thorough understanding of the underlying processes, from the physical energy deposition to the biological response to radiation, is fundamental for reliably predicting radiation effects. The primary objectives of this course are to build predictive dosimetry models and develop skills in applying mathematical concepts to effectively solve problems.
Credits: 2
Prerequisites: RAD 211
Objectives of the course :

• Understanding the models of biological radiation effects at different levels of organization.
Retrieve biophysical models at the molecular, genetic, and cellular levels.
Critique models at the boundaries of their applicability and identify their shortcomings.
• Comparing models in terms of applicability and disadvantages.
Evaluate the credibility of the implemented model.
• Interpretation of specific models according to radiological biological processes and modeling principles.
