The nuclear charge pickup cross-sections of [Formula: see text]C on CH2, C, Al, Cu and Pb targets at the highest energy of 288[Formula: see text]MeV/n were investigated using CR-39 nuclear track detector. The cross-section for H was calculated from those measured on C and CH2 targets. The dependence of charge pickup cross-section on target mass was investigated. It was found that the nuclear charge pickup cross-section of [Formula: see text]C at our studied beam energies seems to exponentially depend on the target mass with the fitting exponent [Formula: see text], which can be well explained by the peripheral and the surface collisions of the nuclear charge pickup reactions.

The present work deals with measuring concentrations of uranium in 20 samples taken from sediments of different sites of southern Shatt al-Arab located south of Basra Governorate Located in the southern part of Iraq, using a uranium fission fragment U-235 (n-f), obtained by the bombardment of U-235 with thermal neutrons. Irradiation was performed, then chemical etching was performed, and then the number of tracks was counted using a microscope. The results computed through the solid state nuclear track detector (SSNTDs) techniques For 20 samples were taken from 20 different sediment sites in the southern part of the Shatt al-ArabIn the southern part of Basra Governorate, southern Iraqindicated that the uranium concentrations in the study area ranged between 1.886 ppm near Al-Shahiniya Road and 3.290 ppm at the AL-Dora 2 site. The t results of the study have shown that the uranium concentrations in the studied surface soil samples were less than the allowed value (11.7 ppm) recommended by UNSCEAR, 1993.

In present study, the technique was used, including nuclear track detector type (CR-39), for appreciative concentrations uranium and radon in soil samples from Baghdad University Campus-AL-Jadiriyah utilizing a prolonged -term with a solid-state nuclear path sensor, a technique for charged particles has been developed., the radon concentrations, effective dose rate and uranium concentrations have measured in soil samples. Eight various venues from soil Baghdad University Campus have appointed. The results indicated variant values about uranium and radon concentrations, the average value for radon gas, effective dose rate and uranium concentrations was found to be 281.59 Bq/cm3, 7.09 mSv/y and 0.01 Bq/mm-2 respectively. All results appeared that concentrations for radon and uranium in soil are infra the permitted limit from (ICRP) agency which are 1100 Bq/m3 and 11.7 (mg. Kg- 1) ppm respectively. All results were comparison with the domestic and worldwide results.

Modified structure along latent tracks and track formation process have been investigated in poly (allyl diglycol carbonate), PADC, which is well recognized as a sensitive etched track detector. This knowledge is essential to develop novel detectors with improved track registration property. The track structures of protons and heavy ions (He, C, Ne, Ar, Fe, Kr and Xe) have been examined by means of FT-IR spectrometry, covering the stopping power region between 1.2 to 12,000 eV/nm. Through a set of experiments on low-LET radiations—such as gamma ray-, multi-step damage process by electron hits was confirmed in the radiation-sensitive parts of the PADC repeat-unit. From this result, we unveiled for the first-time the layered structure in tracks, in relation with the number of secondary electrons. We also proved that the etch pit was formed when at least two repeat-units were destroyed along the track radial direction. To evaluate the number of secondary electrons around the tracks, a series of numerical simulations were performed with Geant4-DNA. Therefore, we are proposing new physical criterions to describe the detection thresholds. Furthermore, we propose a present issue of the definition of detection threshold for semi-relativistic C ions. Additionally, as a possible chemical criterion, formation density of hydroxyl group is suggested to express the response of PADC.
