61. Ionising Radiation And Health - Risk Analysis Simple to understand and user-friendly introduction to basic radiation concepts and health risk assessments. http://www.abelard.org/briefings/ionising-radiation.asp

Ionising radiation and health risk analysis, with particular attention to radioactivity site map a briefing document Web abelard.org is the sixth of a series of briefing documents on the problems of power consumption, posed by the steady depletion of fossil fuels and most particularly of pumpable oil. On energy Nuclear power - is nuclear power really really dangerous? Biofuels Photovoltaics (solar cells) Non-pv (photovoltaic) solar technology ... Books on energy replacements with reviews On global warming Global warming Anthropogenic global warming, and ocean acidity Energy pricing and greenwash How atmospheric chemistry and physics effects global warming ... sustainable futures briefing documents Index Introduction Them there rays alpha rays beta rays ... End notes Introduction This document is introductory only; very much more is known about radiation and can be learnt by study. The purpose of this document is to remove irrational fears and to present basic analysis of risk. The figures given in the document are often useful examples rather than the latest figures for your country or local conditions. You live surrounded by ionising radiation, just as you live in a world surrounded by heat. If you were transported into the sun, or even a furnace, you would not last long. Heat is a form of energy; at normal background levels it is no big deal, but you sure don’t want to take up residence in the core of a nuclear reactor, any more than you would welcome living unprotected in a coal-fired furnace.

The B.S. degree in RHS with an emphasis in Health Physics (RADH track) prepares you for entry-level positions in industry, medical centers, government, and education, and for M.S. and Ph.D. studies in Health Physics and closely allied fields, such as Nuclear Engineering. The pre-Medical Physics (RHMP) track is designed to prepare students for entry into M.S. and Ph.D. programs in medical physics (diagnostic and therapeutic radiological physics) and related fields, such as radiation biology and the imaging sciences. A minor in RHS is an excellent choice for pre-medicine students interested in specialty areas such as radiation oncology, nuclear medicine and radiology.

NEWNET (Neighborhood Environmental Watch Network) is a network of environmental monitoring stations, and data storage and data processing systems, with public access to the data through the Internet. This allows interested members of the public to have constant access to the stations so they can observe the results at any time. A station manager from each community has access to researchers and support organizations that can provide technical assistance if needed. Station Managers serve as liaisons to their communities and can help citizens understand measurements. NEWNET was started in 1993 with stations in Nevada, California, Utah, and New Mexico. It is based on concepts developed by the Department of Energy for the Community Monitoring Program at the Nevada Test Site Nuclear Testing Facility. These concepts date back to the Three Mile Island Nuclear Power Reactor accident in the late 1970's. Stations can vary in configuration. Most NEWNET stations have sensors for monitoring wind speed and direction, ambient air temperature, barometric pressure, relative humidity and ionizing gamma radiation. Wind data are not checked for quality assurance and are not guaranteed.

What To Do Radiation Protection Although radiation is naturally present in our environment, it can have either beneficial or harmful effects, depending on its use and control. For that reason, Congress charged the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) with protecting people and the environment from unnecessary exposure to radiation as a result of civilian uses of nuclear materials. Toward that end, the NRC requires nuclear power plants; research reactors; and other medical, industrial, and academic licensees to use and store radioactive materials in a way that eliminates unnecessary exposure and protects radiation workers and the public.

Home After Hours Resources A-Z ... Email Us Radiological Health Attention Radioactive Materials Licensee: The Westchester County Department of Health requests your assistance with efforts to reduce the potential hazards of contamination of household waste with radioactive isotopes. In the course of protecting our communities from radiation hazards, radiation monitors have detected contamination at several waste collection sites around the County. While the contamination has ultimately proven to be at extremely low levels, the sources have included human excreta from individuals treated with radioactive iodine for thyroid conditions. The human manpower and expense to municipalities involved with each incident is significant. After several discussions with veterinary and medical providers, and with officials from the Radioactive Materials section of the New York State Department of Health, the Westchester County Department of Health has developed the enclosed fact sheets (see below) with specific recommendations for the management of potentially contaminated household waste. Please make use of this information when counseling patients treated with radioactive isotopes. By making your contaminated waste storage facilities available to patients for their own soiled diapers, sanitary pads, tissues or other similarly contaminated waste products you will be helping keep our communities free of all radiation hazards.
