Curves relating beam energy, scattering foil thickness, central-axis depth-dose, and beam flatness have been generated using data taken on a Siemens 200A betatron. The curve set allows a single combination of tungsten foil thickness and electron beam energy to be
Thermionic electron emission from 200 to 500 nm thick coatings of scandium oxide on tungsten foil have been examined in thermionic emission microscopy, spectroscopic photoelectron microcopy, synchrotron radiation and ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy (UPS). A clear dependence of the scandium oxide-W

The history and changing function of tungsten as the heaviest element in biological systems is given. It starts from an inhibitory element/anion, especially for the iron molybdenum-cofactor (FeMoCo)-containing enzyme nitrogenase involved in dinitrogen fixation, as well as for the many
There is emerging evidence that tungsten has toxic health effects. We summarize the recent tungsten toxicity research in this short review. Tungsten is widely used in many commercial and military applications because it has the second highest melting temperature of
The superior colliculus is a layered structure important for body- and gaze-orienting responses. Its superficial layer is, next to the lateral geniculate nucleus, the second major target of retinal ganglion axons and is retinotopically organized. Here we show that in
