    Abstract: The most frequently used radiopharmaceutical for treatment of thyroid cancer is the radioactive iodine (RAI). Patients treated with RAI therapy cause risk of external radiation exposure to the public and family members. While the therapeutic use of iodine-131 for thyroid carcinoma patients offers enormous benefit to them, it contributes also signif... Show More

    Abstract: Published theoretical data from several models – PHSD/HSD both with and without chiral symmetry restoration (CSR), applied to experimental data on nuclear collisions from BEVALAC/SIS to LHC energies were analyzed using meta-analysis and Kolmogorov criteria. This made it possible to localize possible features of nuclear matter created in central nuc... Show More
