Electromagnetic radiation is a type of energy that is all around us and takes many forms, such as radio waves, microwaves, X-rays and gamma-rays. Sunlight is also a form of electromagnetic energy, but visible light is only a small portion of the electromagnetic spectrum, which contains a br...
Why is synchrotron radiation dangerous?Synchrotron Radiation:Synchrotron radiation is a type of radiation used to study the structure and properties of materials by using powerful beams of electrons or light, including x-ray imaging, magnetic resonance imaging, and neutron diffraction. It is also used...
To put this into perspective, radiofrequency radiation is the same airwaves being produced by cellphones and microwaves. This type of wireless radiation typically isn’t dangerous, but it depends on what type of radiation is being emitted from the device. The difference is whether it’s ionizing...

Some have questioned the safety of airport scanners. However, a National Academies report indicates that the electromagnetic radiation exposure lasts only about a second and is many times weaker than exposures known to heat tissues. Such airport security scanners are very safe.Roth, Bradley J....
This equation is the basis for much of analytical toxicology that uses the absorbance of electromagnetic radiation as a method of quantifying an analyte. The equation is: A=abcwhere A is the absorbance (formerly called optical density), a is the absorptivity, b is the pathlength of the sample...
Experts know that portable devices emit radiation which affects those wave-lengths which aircraft use for navigation and communication. But, because they have not been able to reproduce these effects in a laboratory, they have no way of knowing whether the interference might be dangerous or not....
These rays are very dangerous because of the damage they can do to you biologically (See the HSW article entitled "How Nuclear Radiation Works" for a further discussion of gamma radiation.). The amount of energy is dependent on the frequency of the radiation. Visible electromagnetic radiation ...
When I go to know of thedangerous impact this has on my health, I had to stop it. You are exposing your brain to electromagnetic radiations by doing this. Overtime, you will have frequent headaches and dizziness. Also, this can affect your sleep and cause insomnia overtime. While you ...
(A)The space between the planets is far from empty. It contains:electromagnetic radiation(photons 光子),hot plasma(等离子体)(electrons, protons(质子) and other ions(离子))also known as the solar wind, cosmic rays,microscopic dust particles, and magnetic fields(primarily the Sun's).While the ...
