Effects of the Shape of the Radiation Dose-Response Curve on Public Acceptance of Radiation and Nuclear Energy [PDF]
, 2002 [Excerpt] “The public generally accepts the premise that exposure to radiation can have an undesirable effect. Furthermore, it believes that as the radiation dose increases, the magnitude of the effect will increase.

On prognostic estimates of radiation risk in medicine and radiation protection
Radiation and Environmental Biophysics, 2019 The problem of expressing cumulative detrimental effect of radiation exposure is revisited. All conventionally used and computationally complex lifetime or time-integrated risks are based on current population and health statistical data, with unknown ...

Topological lasing and self-induced transparency in two level systems
, 2016 The use of virtually lossless topologically isolated edge states may lead to a novel class of thresholdless lasers operating without inversion. One needs however to understand if topological states may be coupled to external radiation and act as active ...
