متن کاملIonizing Radiation and Human Gender Proportion at Birth: A Concise Review of the Literature and A Complementary Analysis of Historical and Recent Data
It has long been known that ionizing radiation causes genetic mutations and that nuclear bomb testing, nuclear accidents, and the regular and incidental emissions of nuclear facilities enhance environmental radioactivity. For this reason, the carcinogenic and genetic impact of ionizing radiation has been an escalating issue for environmental health and human health studies in the past decades. ...
متن کاملReconstruction of the Internal Dose in Population from Radioactive Releases
INTRODUCTION The need for retrospective assessments of the internal doses received by members of the public as a result of large environmental releases of radionuclides arose in connection with the atmospheric nuclear weapons tests conducted in the 1950s and 1960s as well as with major radiation accidents. The assessment of the internal exposure is greatly facilitated when measurements of the r...
