There are radioactive gases in the air we breathe. Our own bodies - muscles, bones, and tissue - contain naturally occurring radioactive elements. Man has always been exposed to natural radiation ...

While THz radiation waves have been manipulated in different ways over the past decades, controlling their direction in air has so far remained a challenge. Researchers at Ecole Polytechnique ...

IT has been assumed in investigations of atmospheric radiation that the values of the radiating power obtained in laboratory experiments are comparable with the values obtained from meteorological ...

However, despite the claims, you'll be happy to know that air fryers do not use radiation. 'Despite the growing popularity of air fryers, some worry about the toxicity and cancer risks ...

Three months earlier, the core of a reactor had opened at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant, sending plumes of radioactive material coursing through the air. As the plant's newly-appointed deputy ...

The radiation directly heats up the ground, instead of warming the air. This permits surfaces such as roads, sidewalks, and other hard surfaces absorb heat, which in turn melts ice and snow.

They then found that firing a laser into the same air space also gave the electrons ... This phenomenon could be used as a way to detect radiation levels from a distance. The team built a small ...

Radu Motisan has been building a global environmental surveillance network which first monitored radiation levels, and since has added the ability to measure air quality. He believes that people ...

Gamma radiation is the most penetrating. It can penetrate air, paper or thin metal. It may only be stopped by many centimetres of lead or many metres of concrete.

India's capacity to generate solar power could fall by 600-800 gigawatt-hour before mid-century due to air pollution and ...

The higher exposure, compared to other radiographic procedures, is because the breast is composed of soft tissue (no bones or air) and has very low contrast. More radiation is required to produce ...
