19 Exposure scenarios Particles Max energy (MeV/n) Dose Dose rate Exposure 1 H to 58 Ni ~10,000 Low ( msv in LEO, up to 1 Sv for Mars) 1 H, 12 C ~400 High (60-80 Gyeq. to the tumor) Low (about 1 msv/day) High - fractionated (about 2 Gyeq./day) Wholebody Partialbody
20 Common research topics Individual radiosensitivity Mixed radiation fields Shielding Radioprotectors Biomarkers of sensitivity and risk CNS damage Bystander/abscopal effects Adaptive response Late effects of heavy ions (cancer and noncancer)
21 Risk of heavy-ion carcinogenesis The principal stochastic risk associated with low dose rate galactic cosmic rays is the increased risk of cancer. Estimates of this risk depend on two factors (a) estimates of cancer risk for low-let radiation and (b) values of the appropriate radiation weighting factors, WR, for the high-let radiations of galactic cosmic rays. Both factors are subject to considerable uncertainty. Additional laboratory studies could reduce the uncertainties in WR and thus produce a more confident estimate of the overall risk of galactic cosmic rays. SINCLAIR,W. K., 1994, Adv.

29 Biodosimetry in astronauts Dicentrics per 1000 lymphocytes Taxi-flights Long-term flights ** Pre-flight Post-flight Pre-flight Post-flight Data for 23 cosmonauts involved in Mir missions. From: Durante et al., Cytogenet. Genome Res. 103 (2003) 40. Biodosimetry can be used to test current models of radiation risk in space (high uncertainties). A significant increase in aberrations has been reported after long-term LEO missions (large NASA JSC study) Taken together, the results indicate a reasonable agreement between chromosome aberration dosimetry and physical dosimetry, assuming a Q = 2.4 in LEO

34 What is the fate of human cells after a single heavy-ion traversal? If a single α-particle from a radioactive isotope, such as 226 Ra or 239 Pu, has a high probability to kill a cell, then it is difficult to understand how cells whose nuclei have been traversed by α-particles can survive to become malignant SINCLAIR,W. K., 1974, Physical Mechanisms in Radiation Biology, Conf p Survival of V79 hamster cells as a funtion of the number of nuclear α-particle tarversals counted by LR-115 solid state nuclear track deetctors (Pugliese et al., Int.

45 Conclusions Heavy ions are different in many facets from X-rays and other genotoxic agents Their special radiobiological properties make them very effective in radiotherapy, but potentially dangerous for late effects, and therefore a major hazard in human space exploration The RBE depends on many different factors, and can drastically change for different endpoints. Notwithstanding many years of research in the field, the uncertainty is still high Accelerator-based research in radiobiology is essential for improving radiotherapy and ensure protection in space: it should be increased, and can serve both medical and space research communities
