Application of charged-particle beams in science and technology

  • Published:
La Rivista del Nuovo Cimento (1978-1999) Aims and scope

Conclusions

Charged-particle beams are assuming an evermore prominent role in our everyday life. For example, today it is difficult to envisage a research centre in biomedical sciences or a contemporary hospital without the access to a particle accelerator. With future development in technology and our better understanding of charged-particle interaction with living matter the role of accelerators in life sciences will increase even more.

Equally important are studies of new materials and applications of unique analytical capabilities of nuclear probes.
