Background And Purpose: For dosimetry in magnetic resonance (MR) guided radiotherapy, assessing the magnetic field correction factors of air-vented ionization chambers is crucial. Novel MR-optimized chambers reduce MR-imaging artefacts, enhancing their quality assurance utility. This study aimed to characterize two new MR-optimized ionization chambers with sensitive volumes of 0.

Background: The integration of magnetic resonance tomography into clinical linear accelerators provides high-contrast, real-time imaging during treatment and facilitates online-adaptive workflows in radiation therapy treatments. The associated magnetic field also bends the trajectories of charged particles via the Lorentz force, which may alter the dose distribution in a patient or a phantom and affects the dose response of dosimetry detectors.
Purpose: To perform an experimental and Monte Carlo-based determination of correction factors , which correct the response of ion chambers in the presence of external magnetic fields in high-energy photon fields.

In magnetic resonance (MR) guided radiotherapy, the magnetic field-dependent change in the dose response of ionization chambers is typically included by means of a correction factor [Formula: see text]. This factor can be determined experimentally or calculated by means of Monte Carlo (MC) simulations. To date, a small number of experimental values for [Formula: see text] at magnetic flux densities above 1.

The use of planktonic foraminifera in paleoceanography requires taxonomic consistency and precise assessment of the species biogeography. Yet, ribosomal small subunit (SSUr) DNA analyses have revealed that most of the modern morpho-species of planktonic foraminifera are composed of a complex of several distinct genetic types that may correspond to cryptic or pseudo-cryptic species. These genetic types are usually delimitated using partial sequences located at the 3'end of the SSUrDNA, but typically based on empirical delimitation.
