From: Comparison of RBE values of high- LET α-particles for the induction of DNA-DSBs, chromosome aberrations and cell reproductive death

Figure 1

Number of γ-H2AX foci (A), Radiation dose survival curves (B), frequency of colour junctions (C) and chromosome fragments (D) for SW1573 cells after α particle (black squares) and gamma irradiation (black triangles). Calculated RBE values for DNA-DSBs, cell reproductive death, chromosome fragments and colour junctions are 1.0 ± 0.3, 14.7 ± 5.1, 15.3 ± 5.9 and 13.3 ± 6.0 resp.
