A unique high natural background radiation area - Dose assessment and perspectives.

Science of the Total Environment, 2021
The biological effects of low dose-rate radiation exposures on humans remains unknown. In fact, the Japanese nation still struggles with this issue after the Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Plant accident.

Prediction of weather induced background radiation fluctuation with recurrent neural networks

Radiation Physics and Chemistry, 2019
Background radiation estimation plays an important role in the anomalous radiation detection. Accurately estimating temporal and spatial fluctuations of background radiation helps to reduce the false alarm rate and improve the estimation accuracy of ...

Pattern Discovery in Internet Background Radiation

IEEE Transactions on Big Data, 2019
Internet Background Radiation (IBR) is observed in empty network address spaces. No traffic should arrive there, but it does in overwhelming quantities, gathering evidences of attacks, malwares and misconfigurations.

A flat Universe from high-resolution maps of the cosmic microwave background radiation

Nature, 2000
The blackbody radiation left over from the Big Bang has been transformed by the expansion of the Universe into the nearly isotropic 2.73 K cosmic microwave background.

A Background to Background Radiation

The Physics Teacher, 2003
The study of radiation at the introductory college level usually includes experiments to determine the half-life of a radioactive isotope and also a study of the absorption of nuclear radiation by metal foils. These experiments are straightforward to do using a Geiger-Müller tube and scaler, and allow for the determination of well-known constants.

The cosmic microwave background radiation

Reviews of Modern Physics, 1979
Radio Astronomy has added greatly to our understanding of the structure and dynamics of the universe. The cosmic microwave background radiation, considered a relic of the explosion at the beginning of the universe some 18 billion years ago, is one of the most powerful aids in determining these features of the universe. This paper is about the discovery

Internet background radiation revisited

Proceedings of the 10th ACM SIGCOMM conference on Internet measurement, 2010
The monitoring of packets destined for routeable, yet unused, Internet addresses has proved to be a useful technique for measuring a variety of specific Internet phenomenon (e.g., worms, DDoS). In 2004, Pang et al. stepped beyond these targeted uses and provided one of the first generic characterizations of this non-productive traffic, demonstrating ...
