The density and strength of tungsten alloys make them the first choice for radiation shielding applications.Their energy-absorbing qualities are excellent choices to protect sensitive electronic equipment, as well as delicate human tissue.
Tungsten alloys are used for radioactive source containers, gamma radiography, syringe shields, oncology treatment systems and oncology instruments. Tungsten alloys provide unsurpassed strength, control and protection.

Precision-made tungsten parts and high-density tungsten alloys are used in a variety of applications, from multi leaf collimators and medical isotope production, transport and containment to radiation shielding materials, syringe shields, lead shielding replacement parts, and oncology treatment systems and instruments.
Tungsten alloys are used in a variety of diagnostic and therapeutic medical technologies. High-density alloys for multileaf collimators are used to comprise the individual leaves, which can move independently in and out of the path of a particle beam. This crucial device directs a beam and focuses radiotherapy treatment to precisely conformed shapes, delivering correct therapy doses to patients. Multileaf collimators are widely used in radiology departments and are an integral part of radiotherapy.

Cleaning Tungsten Darts

How often do you clean your Tungsten darts? Or any of your darts for that matter?
If you haven't been cleaning them, then I can assure you that they are probably already corroding. This is especially important after eating any salty or greasy snacks. How often have you munched on some chips or salted pretzels while you were playing?I will be the first to admit..... I do it all the time!
Then I found out that these oils and salt were slowly corroding the barrels of my darts. I thought that the ridges on them were smoothing out due to the darts bumping into each other all of the time, or hitting the floor (every once in a while. lol) but in fact, the stuff on my hands was causing far more damage than bumping each other or hitting the floor every could.
Now I clean my darts often and nothing special is needed to do this, so, why not right?Any mild cleaner that can remove oil will do. Hand soap, household cleaners, and even moist towelletes (not the ones that contain hand lotion!) will work fine. If you need something to take along to tournaments or league play, small alcohol swab packets are handy.
With this little bit of extra care, your darts will last even longer for you!

Types of Electron Guns

Heated tungsten
A heated filament made from the metal tungsten. Much in the way that an incandescent lightbulb works, the high voltage that is fed through the filament causes electrons to be kicked off the filament. The amount of energy required is known as the work function.
Lanthanum hexaboride (LaB6)
The LaB6 filament is also a thermal filament. However, its work function is lower than for a tungsten filament, so it is more efficient.
Tungsten field emission gun (FEG)
The FEG gun is not a thermal filament. Instead, electrons are expelled by applying a very powerful electric field very close to the filament tip. The size and proximity of the electric field to the electron reservoir in the filament causes the electrons to tunnel out of the reservoir.

Benefits of a Slimmer Tungsten Dart

Are Tungsten darts thinner than other darts? In fact, yes they are!
Tungsten darts are (based on the percentage of Tungsten involved) more dense than brass and copper darts. Since they are more dense, they are able to be thinner, but still the same weight.The benefits of having a slimmer dart is one that will become very important to you as you begin to get more experienced with playing and challenging others and here is why:
Just think about this scenerio. Your right at the end of a game and you know that if you would hit two bullseyes, you would hands down win the game. You throw with your brass dart and you hit the bullseye. Yay! Now your about to throw your second dart, but the space remaining on that bullseye is decreased by your large brass dart sticking out of it. At times like this, you would much rather be using a slimmer dart!
