In the areas of Japan I visited, radiation dose rates were elevated to about three to four times typical natural radiation dose rates (which are about .1 mrem per hour), but nowhere near as high ...

The equation is often used to provide radiation readings in models across a number of disciplines including agriculture, ecology and meteorology. Read more at Murdoch University.

The following equation calculates the rate of conduction: Q = [k · A · (T hot – T cold)]/d. ... What is Radiation? Thermal radiation generates from the emission of electromagnetic waves.

Some radiation exposure is unavoidable. The average American gets 360 millirems of radiation a year by doing mundane activities such as eating bananas and sleeping next to another person.

We solve the one-dimensional Fokker-Planck equation for radiation belt electrons under the assumption of the conservation of the first and second adiabatic invariants (so-called radial diffusion). We ...

Before world renowned physicist Stephen Hawking died at 76, he had already made clear what he wanted on his gravestone. The Cambridge professor wanted what is known as Hawking's equation - which ...

A new study -- the first trial to publish five-year results from SBRT treatment for prostate cancer -- found a 98.6 percent cure rate with SBRT, a noninvasive form of radiation treatment that ...
