Sources and effects of ionizing radiation

·2018·United Nations Scientific Committee on the Effects of Atomic Radiation (UNSCEAR) Reports

Abstract

This report summarizes the developments in radiation science in the years leading up to the new millennium. It draws on the main conclusion of the scientific assessments of the United Nations Scientific Committee on the Effect of Atomic Radiation (UNSCEAR). This volume presents the effects of atomic radiation by providing findings on: DNA repair and mutagenesis; biological effects at low radiation doses; combined effects of radiation and other agents; epidemiological evaluation of radiation-induced cancer; exposures and effects of the Chernobyl accident. The publication serves as a unique scientific basis for estimating radiation risk, establishing radiation protection and safety standards and regulating radiation sources. It is recommended for government officials, scientists, medical specialists and others who are concerned about the possible hazards of natural and man-made sources of radiation.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
