Description
This journal is devoted to fundamental and applied issues in radiation research and biophysics. The topics include:
- Biophysics of ionizing radiation: radiation physics and chemistry, radiation dosimetry, radiobiology, radioecology, biophysical foundations of medical radiology, nuclear medicine, and radiation protection.
- Biophysics of non-ionizing radiations: ultraviolet, visible, and infrared light (including laser light), microwaves, radiowaves, low frequency electromagnetic fields, sound and ultrasound.
- Biological effects of physical factors, such as temperature, pressure, gravitational forces, electric and magnetic fields.
- Biophysical aspects of the biosphere and space, of ecosystems and their mathematical models, and of transport processes of energy and substances in biotic systems.
- Risk assessment and risk modelling for radiation and environmental factors.
Contributions to these topics may include theoretical-mathematical and experimental material. They can range from complex radiobiological phenomena to issues of health physics and environmental protection.
Special emphasis is given to fundamental research - directly or indirectly related to radiation and environmental problems - but articles on medical physics and biomedical engineering will be accepted if they contribute to the understanding of fundamental mechanisms.
