Abstract:
Boron Neutron Capture Therapy is a binary treatment for certain types of cancer. It works by loading the cancerous cells with a boron-10 carrying compound. This isotope has a large cross-section for thermal neutrons, the reaction producing a lithium nucleus and alpha particle that kill the cell in which they are produced. Recent studies of the boron carrier compound indicate that the uptake process works best in particularly aggressive cancers. Most studied is glioblastoma multiforme and a trial using a combination of BNCT and X-ray radiotherapy has shown an increase of nearly a factor of two

Abstract:
The planned laser-driven ionizing beams (photon, very high energy electron, proton, carbon ion) at laser facilities have the unique property of ultra-high dose rate (>Gy/s^-10), short pulses, and at ELI-ALPS high repetition rate, carry the potential to develop novel laser-driven methods towards compact hospital-based clinical application. The enhanced flexibility in particle and energy selection, the high spatial and time resolution and extreme dose rate could be highly beneficial in radiotherapy. These approaches may increase significantly the therapeutic index over the currently available

Abstract:
Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is one of the most appealing radiotherapy modalities, whose localization can be further improved by the employment of boron-containing nanoformulations, but the fabrication of biologically friendly, water-dispersible nanoparticles (NPs) with high boron content and favorable physicochemical characteristics still presents a great challenge. Here, we explore the use of elemental boron (B) NPs (BNPs) fabricated using the methods of pulsed laser ablation in liquids as sensitizers of BNCT. Depending on the conditions of laser-ablative synthesis, the used NPs were

Abstract:
Sufficient boron-10 isotope (10B) accumulation by tumor cells is one of the main requirements for successful boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT). The inability of the clinically registered 10B-containing borophenylalanine (BPA) to maintain a high boron tumor concentration during neutron irradiation after a single injection has been partially solved by its continuous infusion; however, its lack of persistence has driven the development of new compounds that overcome the imperfections of BPA. We propose using elemental boron nanoparticles (eBNPs) synthesized by cascade ultrasonic dispersion and

Abstract:
The chemistry and reactivity of carborane-appended magnetic nanoparticles and boron-based nanomaterials are briefly reviewed with an emphasis on our contribution to this field. The carborane-appended magnetic nanoparticles exhibited great potential to be useful in boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT). A facile route to synthesize boron nanorods (BNRs) and boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs) is also demonstrated. While functionalized BNRs and BNNTs have been successfully prepared, the derivatives of BNNTs were investigated as potential carriers for BNCT.

Abstract:
Abstract The technique of laser ablation in liquids is applied to produce Boron-containing nanoparticles from ablation of a Fe2B bulk target enriched in 10B isotope. Laser ablation of the target in liquid isopropanol results in partial disproportionation to free Fe and Boron while nanoparticles of Fe2B are also presented. The nanoparticles are magnetic and can be collected using a permanent magnet. The average size of nanoparticles is about 15 nm. The content of 10B in the generated nanoparticles amounts to 76.9%. The nanoparticles are biocompatible and can be used in boron neutron capture the

Abstract:
✓ Because of the short range of the highly energetic particles helium-4 and lithium-7 that results from neutron-induced disintegration of boron-10, the efficacy of Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT) is heavily dependent on 10B-microlocation. Despite the crucial importance of boron-10, there is little specific information with regard to the agent currently used for inducing BNCT, namely Na2B12H11SH. In the present study, a subcellular 10B-location was investigated in tumor tissue obtained from seven patients with glioblastoma World Health Organization Grade IV. These patients received Na2B12H

Laser pulses of several petawatt power and ps duration led to the discovery of an anomaly of interaction, if the prepulses are cut off by a factor 108 (contrast ratio) to avoid relativistic self focusing.

Abstract:
Abstract Computational simulation allows scientists to explore, observe, and test physical regimes thought to be unattainable. Validation and uncertainty quantification play crucial roles in extrapolating the use of physics-based models. Bayesian analysis provides a natural framework for incorporating the uncertainties that undeniably exist in computational modeling. However, the ability to perform quality Bayesian and uncertainty analyses is often limited by the computational expense of first-principles physics models. In the absence of a reliable low-fidelity physics model, phenomenological
