    There are a number of unanswered questions which indicate that the Standard Model, successful as it is, cannot be the entire story. One solution to answering these questions is that the Standard Model is an effective low-energy theory of structure hopefully nearby in its energy scale in much the same way that a model of strong interactions among nucleons mediated by pions is an...

    Il settore della radioprotezione non è ancora avanzato in Malawi. Ciò può essere dovuto al fatto che non ci sono molte industrie che utilizzano sorgenti di radiazioni ionizzanti. Tuttavia, in medicina, soprattutto in radiologia diagnostica, ci sono molte macchine a raggi X utilizzate in vari ospedali del Paese. Sebbene i livelli di radiazioni siano più bassi nella radiografia r...
