Not at all; for human health, what matters is the generation of ion pairs and gamma radiation includes energies that go right through a human body without much likelihood of interaction.

That's just nonsense; word salad, plus some capitalizations.

The use of gamma irradiation is relatively widespread and was first described in the British Pharmacopeia in 1963 and in the --- What are gamma rays and how dangerous are they? Gamma rays are ionizing radiation and are thus biologically hazardous. Due to their high penetration power, they can damage bone marrow and internal organs. Unlike alpha and beta rays, they pass easily through the body and thus pose a formidable radiation protection challenge. --- Gamma Radiation: A brief background Gamma particles consist of energy photons and were discovered by Paul Villard in 1900 when he was researching gamma radiation that comes from radium. These particles are a form of ionizing radiation and can be dangerous to humans, animals and plant life. The decay of the atomic nucleus downgrades from high levels of energy to lower energy. This process is call gamma decay which is what gives birth to radiation gamma. The nucleus releases particles decreasing its energy. Gamma radiation Radiation gamma How Gamma Radiation is Produced Typically, the gamma particles that are released during gamma decay are radioactive so there is enough power in them to do harm. It has the ability to damage physical structure and cause genetic mutations. Because of the ability to break natural bonds in the human body, it can potentially do a high level of harm and cause many severe health problems. Some of the health concerns can be acute and the damage cannot be repaired through the body’s natural repair process. This is commonly the case with high exposure that is long term and will accumulate to cause serious health problems. What can Stop Radiation Gamma? Gamma radiations can travel very fast at the speed of light and chances of penetration are very high. It can penetrate even through metal and do damage. Even though these rays are dangerous with high exposure, they are still used in the medical field for cancer treatment and for imaging equipment such as x-rays. Your exposure amount can only be measured using a Geiger counter and to determine what can stop gamma radiation. This is the reason why during the x-ray process, you will use a lead apron. Normally, you would need 3 meters of concrete to prevent gamma radiation from penetrating. Gamma radiations Gamma radiation in USA Side Effects of Gamma Radiation Some of the possible problems with heavy exposure to gamma radiations include radiation sickness. This is also known as radiation poisoning. Some of the gamma radiation signs can be nausea, vomiting, bleeding, mouth sores, nausea, diarrhea and loss of hair. Radiation sickness was very common after the bombs in Hiroshima as well as Nagasaki. This is also common after nuclear power plant disaster such as the one in Chernobyl. Radiation sickness can happen with fast exposure to high levels of radiation. Even if you are given gamma radiation for the treatment of an illness, you may still experience side effects from it even though it was meant to help you. Sometimes, you may see a change in your skin that can be mild to severe redness but sometimes it can be dark like a burn. Just like the symptoms of radiation sickness, you may have those with this treatment. This type of exposure can also damage the number of blood cells you have, causing a decrease. These effects are usually not long lasting but there are possibilities of having long term effects. Other effects include weak bones, difficulty with swallowing and dry mouth. It may also cause infertility problems in men or women. Chernobyl Tours ☢ Please support us with LIKE :) PLEASE ☢ Share On FacebookPinterestTwitterGoogle+ Previous Article What is Beta Radiation?

Gamma Radiation Gamma radiation (7.5Gy) resulted in a significant decrease in body weight, tissue weight, testis: body weight ratio (the gonadosomatic index (GSI)) and tubular diameter up to 15 days of irradiation. https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/biochemistry-genetics-and-molecular-biology/gamma-radiation

A a really doesn't know what he is talking about. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rad_(unit) The Gy - or Gray - is defined in terms of the energy absorbed - in Joules per kilogram - by the object being irradiated. Gamma rays - higher energy X-rays - go straight through human flesh, so the amount of energy deposited is a bit uncertain. What is certain is that it is the energy deposited that matters. and a a doesn't seem to know enough to understand this. -- Bill Sloman, Sydney

The NSW Section is member of the IEEE Australia Council and is located within the Asia-Pacific region of the IEEE, known as Region 10. The NSW Section has in excess of 3,000 members (Feb-19) that work together to advance technology for the benefit of humanity. This is done through a variety of local student branches, technical chapters and groups. IEEE NSW is the oldest Section in Australia. If you reside in NSW you automatically become a member of the NSW Section. One to two emails are sent to members each month outlining all the upcoming events and latest news. To receive this information you must have selected in your IEEE account settings the option to receive local communication. The NSW Section Committee meets at 7.00pm on the first Monday of every month. Members looking to provide input or looking to volunteer are invited to attend and engage at the committee meeting. Being a volunteer unlocks access to a worldwide network. We are always looking for members that are looking to give back. About IEEE is the trusted voice for engineering, computing, and technology information around the globe So IEEE is not science body, organization at all

A simple way of checking whether it is even worth worrying about radon is to look it up! https://www.ukradon.org/radonmaps/ https://www.epa.gov/sites/default/files/2015-07/documents/zonemapcolor.pdf https://www.arpansa.gov.au/understanding-radiation/radiation-sources/more-radiation-sources/radon-map There are similar maps for lots of other countries.

If a a knew what he was talking about, he'd know that the main function of the IEEE is to publish a large collection of high-impact peer-reviewed scientific journals that deal with the science that underlies electronics. That is what science is about, even if a a doesn't have a clue about it. That's why I joined the organisation back around 1980. It's not all that obvious the current activities of the NSW Branch, but that's where the serious effort goes , and where the serious money gets spent. I've got just one short comment in that literature Sloman, A.W. "Comment on 'Computer aided simulation study of photomultiplier tubes'", IEEE Transactions on Electron Devices, ED-38 679-680 (1991). Because I mostly worked in the UK I published more the UK Institute of Physics journals, but there aren't as many of them, and Americans do tend to ignore them. -- Bill Sloman, Sydney
