Characteristics of internet background radiation [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the 4th ACM SIGCOMM conference on Internet measurement, 2004
Monitoring any portion of the Internet address space reveals incessant activity. This holds even when monitoring traffic sent to unused addresses, which we term "background radiation. " Background radiation reflects fundamentally nonproductive traffic, either malicious (flooding backscatter, scans for vulnerabilities, worms) or benign ...

Residential Exposure to Natural Background Radiation and Risk of Childhood Acute Leukemia in France, 1990-2009. [PDF]

open access: yesEnviron 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

Cancer Mortality Among People Living in Areas With Various Levels of Natural Background Radiation. [PDF]

open access: yesDose 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 ...

Review on studies in natural background radiation

open access: yes, 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 ...

Development of a standard method for primary monitoring of exposure to environmental radiation

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Radiation Sciences, 2022
All living things are constantly exposed to background radiation. The presence of radioactive materials in the earth's crust and cosmic radiation are largely responsible for this exposure.
