Numerical modelling and experimental verification of thermal effects in living cells exposed to high-power pulses of THz radiation

Abstract Exposure of cells or biological tissues to high-power pulses of terahertz (THz) radiation leads to changes in a variety of intracellular processes. However, the role of heating effects due to strong absorption of THz radiation by water molecules still stays unclear. In this study, we perfor...
