Measurement of background radiation in Jhapa, Ilam, Panchthar, and Taplejung districts of Nepal

open access: yesBibechana, 2023
In this study, we investigated the levels of background radiation in different locations across the Eastern part of Koshi province, specifically in Taplejung, Panchthar, Ilam, and Jhapa.

Modeling Background Radiation in Isotropic Cosmologies [PDF]

open access: yesGen.Rel.Grav.43:1625-1638,2011, 2011
Using explicit perturbations of isotropic cosmological models which describe simple gravitational waves, an isotropic tensor having the algebraic symmetries of the Bel-Robinson tensor is derived as a model of cosmic background gravitational radiation and this is used to provide an answer to the question: in what sense can an energy-momentum-stress ...

Data-driven evaluation of background radiation safety using machine learning and statistical analysis [PDF]

open access: yesBig Data and Computing Visions
The entire globe is radioactive naturally, and humans are constantly exposed to background radiation from cosmic rays and the radioactive materials in their environment. The concentration and effects of background radiation can vary based on geographical

Spectrum of the microwave background radiation [PDF]

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series A, Mathematical and Physical Sciences, 1982
A review is given of the present status of measurements of the spectrum of the microwave background. Factors that limit experimental accuracy are discussed with particular reference to high-frequency measurements. A selection of the available measurements yields a data set that is reasonably consistent with the black-body spectrum for a temperature of ...

An environmental dose experiment [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Physics, 38 ( 2017) 065801, 2017
Worldwide several radiation sources contribute to the delivered dose to the human population. This radiation also acts as natural background when detecting radiation, for instance from radioactive sources. In this work a medium-size plastic scintillation detector is used to evaluate the dose delivered by natural radiation sources.

Interstellar Hydrogen and Cosmic Background Radiation [PDF]

open access: yesChaos Solitons & Fractals 12(2001) pp 1563-1564, 2000
It is shown that a collection of photons with nearly the same frequency exhibits a "condensation" type of phenomenon corresponding to a peak intensity. The observed cosmic background radiation can be explained from this standpoint in terms of the radiation due to fluctuations in interstellar Hydrogen.

Fast Simulation Study of Muon Absorption Radiography Based on Energy Loss Calculation

open access: yesYuanzineng kexue jishu, 2022
Using natural cosmic ray muon as radiation source, muon absorption radiography can realize nondestructive detection of large-scale geological objects. Simulation analysis is an important step in the application of muon absorption radiography.

Comment on "Stress induction in the bacteria Shewanella oneidensis and Deinococcus radiodurans in response to below-background ionizing radiation", Castillo, et al. Int. J. Rad. Biol., 2015; Early Online DOI:10.3109/09553002.2015.1062571 [PDF]

open access: yesInt. J. Rad. Biol. 92, 169 (2016), 2015
Castillo, et al. report hormesis by background levels of radiation, at which there is $< 10^{-3}$ ionization per bacterium in a replication time. This suggests radiation products accumulate in the growth medium over much longer times. Experiments are proposed to test this hypothesis.

Design and Analysis of a Moon-Based Earth-Radiation Measurement System

open access: yesRemote Sensing
This research project envisions using a lunar observation platform to measure the full-wave (0.2~100 μm) and shortwave (0.2~4.3 μm) radiation of the Earth, achieving an accurate estimation of the overall radiation budget of the Earth.
