Residential Exposure to Natural Background Radiation and Risk of Childhood Acute Leukemia in France, 1990-2009. [PDF]
Environ Health Perspect, 2017 Background: Exposures to high-dose ionizing radiation and high-dose rate ionizing radiation are established risk factors for childhood acute leukemia (AL). The risk of AL following exposure to lower doses due to natural background radiation (NBR) has yet

SOURCES OF NATURAL BACKGROUND RADIATION
Security and Defence Quarterly, 2017 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 ...

Cancer Mortality Among People Living in Areas With Various Levels of Natural Background Radiation. [PDF]
Dose Response, 2015 There are many places on the earth, where natural background radiation exposures are elevated significantly above about 2.5 mSv/year. The studies of health effects on populations living in such places are crucially important for understanding the impact ...

Radiation fields in the Schwarzschild background [PDF]
Journal of Mathematical Physics, 1973 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.

, 1993 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 ...

Review on studies in natural background radiation
Radiation Protection and Environment, 2018 The environment around us is radioactive due to background radiation emitted from the sky, earth's crust, food, water, and building materials. The human body gets exposed to radiation doses of about 82%, which are out of control; they arise from ...

Nonionizing Electromagnetic Irradiations; Biological Interactions, Human Safety [PDF]
Journal of Biomedical Physics and Engineering, 2023 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
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022 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 ...
