[Characteristics of the development of radiation sickness in guinea pigs exposed to non-uniform irradiation in highly lethal doses].

Certain peculiarities have been revealed in the development of radiation sickness in guinea pigs subjected to nonuniform irradiation with superlethal doses. With electron and gamma-neutron radiation LD50/1.5 was 116.

[The RBE of 0.85-MeV neutrons in the cerebral form of radiation sickness in guinea pigs].

The RBE coefficient of neutrons (0.85 MeV) was 1.87 in comparison with that of electron radiation (8 MeV) as determined by the death rate of guinea pigs with the cerebral form of radiation sickness.

[The RBE of 0.85-MeV neutrons in the intestinal form of radiation sickness in guinea pigs].

Relative biological effectiveness (RBE) coefficient of 0.85 MeV neutrons was 1.87 in comparison with 0.

[The RBE of 0.85 MeV neutrons on guinea pig mortality].

A comparative study was made of the death rate of guinea pigs after neutron (0.85 MeV) and 137Cs-gamma-radiation (0.66 MeV); LD50/30 were 1.
