Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
The sensitivity to different relevant parameters of the absorbed fraction of alpha particles emitted from the Rn chain in sensitive cells of the tracheo-bronchial tree have been investigated. The structure of the airway wall given by ICRP (ICRP66) has been adopted and employed in the present calculations. The source thickness (mucous gel and sol + cilia), target layer thickness and the depth of the sensitive layers have been varied within reasonable ranges around the default values recommended by ICRP66. The results have shown that the depth of the sensitive layers is the most important parameter in calculating the absorbed fraction. In addition, dose conversion coefficients were calculated and presented along with the absorbed fractions.
