The Magnetic Field 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 Magnetic Fields on ...

"This is the first detailed radiation map of the region at these higher energies, which is a major step in understanding how Jupiter's radiation environment works." When you purchase through links on ...

Data from a five-year study suggests that limited-field radiation therapy (radiation directed at the tumor site) may be as effective as whole-breast radiation therapy in preventing breast cancer ...

Where does the Earth’s magnetic field come from, why do we think it’s going to reverse itself (and what in the world does that mean, anyway?), and what’s any of that got to do with me or cosmic ...

Ever seen the northern lights? You have a magnetic layer in Earth’s atmosphere to thank for those beautiful displays. But the magnetosphere does a lot more than create auroras.

Cosmic radiation is what it sounds like: radiation from space. In this article, we explore what it is, why we are protected from it on Earth, how it affects people in specific jobs, and how it can ...

For many years NRC (AEC)-licensed activities using by-product materials have been taking place at Michigan Technological University. Early in 1991, the University changed from an NRC broad scope ...

Electric and magnetic fields occur naturally and also come from human-made sources. Scientists and oversight agencies generally agree that low-frequency EMFs pose little danger to human health. Most ...
