A review on natural background radiation
Advanced Biomedical Research, 2013 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.

Semi-Contained Interactions of Atmospheric Neutrinos in the MACRO Detector [PDF]
, 2002 Atmospheric neutrinos arise from the decay of particles (primarily pions, muons and kaons) produced in the collision of high energy cosmic ray particles with the atmosphere.

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.Abstract We report the discovery of the second (Al,Cu)‐alloy–bearing micrometeorite, FB‐A2, recovered from Mount Gariglione (southern Italy), representing the sixth such occurrence worldwide. Although chondritic in nature, FB‐A2 differs markedly from previously described microspherules.

The cosmic microwave background radiation
Physics Reports, 2000 We summarize the theoretical and observational status of the study of the Cosmic Microwave Background radiation. Its thermodynamic spectrum is a robust prediction of the Hot Big Bang cosmology and has been confirmed observationally. There are now 76 observations of Cosmic Microwave Background anisotropy, which we present in a table with references.

On solar protons and polar cap absorption: Constraints on an empirical relationship [PDF]
, 2004 International audienceA large database of Solar Proton Events (SPE) from the period 1995 to 2001 is used to investigate the relationship between proton flux at geostationary orbit and Cosmic Noise Absorption (CNA) in the auroral zone. The effect of solar

Becoming Dostoevsky (how Rowan Williams opens up Bakhtin)
Modern Theology, EarlyView.Abstract With the end of Communism in Russia, non‐materialist contexts were enthusiastically restored to Mikhail Bakhtin's globally famous ideas of carnival, dialogism, and polyphony. This essay surveys Rowan Williams's 2008 study Dostoevsky: Language, Faith + Fiction as a major contribution to this effort, concentrating on those general philosophical ...

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.This study evaluated the photodegradation of commercial insect repellents containing DEET and IR‐3535 under UV‐A and UV‐B irradiation using Raman spectroscopy. Pure DEET and IR‐3535 showed intrinsic photostability, whereas DEET diluted in ethanol and a commercial DEET‐based formulation exhibited significant spectral changes after UV exposure.
