Most radionuclides used in radionuclide therapy emit beta particles which have a low range of tissue penetration. A few emit auger electrons and alpha particles, and several also emit gamma rays and X ...

By harnessing cyclotron-produced therapeutic radionuclides, auger electron therapy, and PET radiometals, his research may lead to new tools for detecting, diagnosing and treating cancer.

The energy released during these transitions can cause the emission of another electron, known as the Auger electron. In the Auger process, the energy of these Auger electrons is characteristic of the ...

The Perkin Elmer PHI-660 scanning Auger microprobe can be used for the compositional analysis of specimen surfaces using Auger electron spectroscopy (AES). The probe depth of AES is on the order of ...
