A review on natural background radiation. [PDF]
The world is naturally radioactive and approximately 82% of human-absorbed radiation doses, which are out of control, arise from natural sources such as cosmic, terrestrial, and exposure from inhalation or intake radiation sources.

Deinococcus radiodurans UWO298 Dependence on Background Radiation for Optimal Growth. [PDF]
Ionizing radiation is a major environmental variable for cells on Earth, and so organisms have adapted to either prevent or to repair damages caused by it, primarily from the appearance and accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). In this study, we

SOURCES OF NATURAL BACKGROUND RADIATION
After the major accidents in “Chernobyl” NPP, located on the territory of present-day Ukraine, and then in the USSR in April 1986, in Bulgaria, as well as in most European countries a lack of systems for a continuous measurement of gamma radiation was ...

Radiation fields in the Schwarzschild background [PDF]
Scalar, electromagnetic, and gravitational test fields in the Schwarzschild background are examined with the help of the general retarded solution of a single master wave equation. The solution for each multipole is generated by a single arbitrary function of retarded time, the retarded multipole moment.

We present a short overview on the extragalactic background radiation from radio to X-rays, with an eye to the relation to galaxy formation and emphasizing on astrophysical backgrounds (as opposed to cosmological). As the radio background, the wealth of data on source counts make possible reliable estimations of the contribution from extragalactic ...

Electromagnetic Wave Collapse in a Radiation Background [PDF]
The nonlinear interaction, due to quantum electrodynamical (QED) effects, between an electromagnetic pulse and a radiation background is investigated, by combining the methods of radiation hydrodynamics with the QED theory for photon-photon scattering.

Nonionizing Electromagnetic Irradiations; Biological Interactions, Human Safety [PDF]
Human is usually exposed to environmental radiation from natural and man-made sources. Therefore, it is important to investigate the effects of exposure to environmental radiation, partly related to understanding and protecting against the risk of ...

Chronic Background Radiation Correlates With Sperm Swimming Endurance in Bank Voles From Chernobyl
Sperm quantity and quality are key features explaining intra- and interspecific variation in male reproductive success. Spermatogenesis is sensitive to ionizing radiation and laboratory studies investigating acute effects of ionizing radiation have ...
