A study of real-world exposure to non-ionizing radiation from magnetic fields in pregnant women found a significantly higher rate of miscarriage, providing new evidence regarding their potential ...

Non-ionizing radiation includes the spectrum of ultraviolet (UV), visible light, infrared (IR), microwave (MW), radio frequency (RF) and extremely low frequency (ELF). Lasers commonly operate in the ...

IN a recent publication 1 we suggested that there is a connexion between penetrating showers produced at sea-level and the penetrating non-ionizing radiation discovered by Rossi and Regener 2 on Mt.

While most modern appliances produce a minimal amount of radiation when compared to previous versions, these particular home appliances still generate dangerous levels of radiation.

The Radio-Frequency (RF) Safety Program is managed by the Radiation Safety Office; a subset of the Office of Environmental and Emergency Management (EEM). We are here to ensure that RF use on campus ...

If decades of cheesy sci-fi and pop culture have taught us anything, it’s that radiation is a universally bad thing that invariably causes the genetic mutations that gifted us with everything from ...

Ultraviolet (UV) light is a form of non-ionizing radiation. It has many uses at the University of Massachusetts Lowell from sterilization to curing certain glues or plastics. The health effects of UV ...
