Abstract

The survival, OER and RBE for HeLa, leukaemia and kidney cells after irradiation with 14 MeV neutrons, pion beams and heavy ion beams dispersed by ridge filters are calculated. Simple beam models and the delta-ray theory of cellular survival are used in the calculations which refer to a mixed radiation environment and the potential application of these irradiation systems in radiotherapy.
