Objective: This systematic review aims to analyze and synthesize the current state of research on the role of immersive technologies, specifically augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), and mixed reality (MR), in medical physics and radiation physics education. The primary focus is to evaluate their impact on learning outcomes, performance, and engagement across various educational contexts.
Methods: We conduct a comprehensive search of four major databases: Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, and IEEE Xplore, covering the period from 2012 to 2023.
Carbon nano-onions (CNOs), in their spherical or polyhedral forms, represent an important class of nanomaterials, due to their peculiar physical and electrochemical properties. Among the different methods of production, arc discharge between graphite electrodes sustained by deionized water is one of the most promising to obtain good quality CNOs in gram quantities. We applied the method with the aim to optimize the production of CNOs, using an innovative experimental arrangement.

For comparison, we also show adsorption results of Methylene Blue (MB) and Acridine Orange (AO) performed in the same conditions. The adsorbent was synthesized by the Tour's method followed by washing in water and ethanol and sonication, without any reduction, and studied by Raman, IR, UV-Vis, SEM and TEM techniques.
