Different types of radiation require different protective measures: a low energy form, called “non-ionizing radiation”, may require fewer protective measures than the higher energy “ionizing radiation ...

But as is usually the case, a closer look at examples a little further away from the extremes can be instructive, and tell us a little more about how radiation, both ionizing and non-ionizing ...

In terms of radiation in relation to health, two forms of radiation can be considered: non-ionising radiation (low energy radiation) and ionising radiation (high energy radiation). As the more ...

For the first time, a national website providing information to the public on non-ionizing radiation – such as that caused by cell phone antennas and other electronic equipment – and its ...

She is is also currently a member of the Scientific Expert Group at the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP). The simple mention of the word “radiation” often ...

Microwave ovens rely on a unique form of non-ionizing radiation, known as “microwaves ... over 750 pounds—a far cry from modern models. When wartime technology was adapted for domestic ...

The potential link between mobile phone radiation and brain tumors has been a subject of ongoing scientific research and public concern for several decades. While the majority of studies conducted ...
