He then describes the relationship between the dose of radiation and the effect it produces. He shows how the dose-effect dependence is measured and what models of describing such dependences are used. He also discusses how radiation acts on living organisms: disorders in the genetic apparatus, mutation formation and so on. The book also includes detailed descriptions of the results of numerous health studies of large groups of people who, for one reason or another, were exposed to low doses of ionizing radiation, including those that significantly exceed the natural radiation background.. .The author concludes that low doses of radiation are safe and can even be beneficial (as known from medical radiation treatment); and also that the natural radiation background is necessary for the normal growth and development and well- | 出版日期 | Book 2023 | 关键词 | book on radiation effects on living organisms; dose-effect relationship; health after nuclear bombardm | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-42645-2 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-031-42644-5 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-031-42645-2 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
