RBE as a function of neutron energy. I. Experimental observations.
Eric J. Hall,Judy K. Novak,Albrecht M. Kellerer,Harald H. Rossi,Stephen A. Marino,Leon J. Goodman +5 more
TL;DR: The survival of Chinese hamster cells in culture was used as a test system to determine the RBE of neutrons over a wide energy range, and a detailed study was made of the relation between RBE and neutron absorbed dose for each neutron energy.

Inactivation of synchronized Chinese Hamster V79 cells with charged-particle track segments.
TL;DR: The difference in radiation sensitivity between these two synchronized cell populations decreased with increased values of LET, but a 10-fold difference persisted with the highest LET values, which were obtained by hydroxyurea-induced synchrony.

The Biological Effectiveness of Radon-Progeny Alpha Particles. II. Oncogenic Transformation as a Function of Linear Energy Transfer
Richard C. Miller,Stephen A. Marino,David J. Brenner,Stewart G. Martin,Marcia Richards,Gerhard Randers-Pehrson,Eric J. Hall +6 more
TL;DR: The relative biological effectiveness (RBE) for radiation-induced transformation for charged particles of defined LET has been determined and the rapid drop in effectiveness for alpha particles with LETs between 120 and 265 keV/microns implies a lower quality factor than the 20-25 currently considered appropriate when estimating lung cancer mortality.

RBE as a function of neutron energy
Eric J. Hall,Judy K. Novak,Albrecht M. Kellerer,Harald H. Rossi,Stephen A. Marino,Leon J. Goodman +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the relative biological effectiveness of neutrons of various energies for the inactivation of hamster cells has been reported; the present article contains a detailed statistical analysis of the data.

The sequential irradiation of mammalian cells with X rays and charged particles of high LET.
TL;DR: Chinese hamster V79 cells, synchronized in late-S phase, were irradiated with high-LET charged particles or X rays, or exposed sequentially to a single dose of charged particles followed by graded doses of X rays to show a synergistic effect compared with exposure to the low-LET radiation.
