This handbook focuses on residential radon exposure from a public health point of view and provides detailed recommendations on reducing health risks from radon and sound policy options for preventing and mitigating radon exposure. The material in the handbook reflects the epidemiological evidence that indoor radon exposure is responsible for a substantial number of lung cancers in the general population. Information is provided on the selection of devices to measure radon levels and on procedures for the reliable measurement of these levels. Discussed also are control options for radon in new dwellings, radon reduction in existing dwellings as well as assessment of the costs and benefits of different radon prevention and remedial actions. Also covered are radon risk communication strategies and organization of national radon programs.--Publisher's description.

TAUP 91 covers the proceedings of the Second International Workshop on Theoretical and Phenomenological Aspects of Underground Physics, held in Toledo, Spain on September 9-13, 1991. The book focuses on the processes, methodologies, reactions, and transformations involved in underground physics. The selection first offers information on the fundamental issues in particle astrophysics and an overview of the problems related to general cosmology. Topics include connections between particle physics, astrophysics, and cosmology, stellar physics and particles, astrophysical ages, cosmic background radiation, and abundances of light elements. The text also takes a look at big bang nucleosynthesis constraints on new physics and microwave background radiation. The publication ponders on very wide band interferometric gravitational wave antenna and search for stellar gravitational collapse by macro. The text also examines high energy cosmic neutrinos of acceleration and non-acceleration origin; tests of general relativity and Newtonian gravity at large distances and the dark matter problem; and nuclear form factors for the scattering of neutralinos. The selection is a valuable reference for readers interested in underground physics.

Advances in Radiation Biology, Volume 11, provides an overview of the state of knowledge in the field of radiation biology. The book contains eight chapters and begins with a study on ADP-ribose in DNA repair. This is followed by separate chapters on the inhibition of DNA repair; the photochemistry and photobiology of furocoumarins and their applications in biology and medicine; radiation risk from combined exposures to ionizing radiations and chemicals; and in vitro studies of drug-radiation interactions. Subsequent chapters deal with free-radical processes in radiation and chemical carcinogenesis; heavy-ion tissue radiobiology; and radon concentrations in the environment and their impact on health.

A peek into the literature on the environmental health implications of the rapidly developing nanotechnology industry shows that the potential problem of exposure to airborne nanoparticles has not been adequately addressed. The health and safety of nanotechnology workers are of concern because these groups run the greatest risk of exposure to elevated concentrations of nanomaterials. However, a gap exists between the currently available particle measurement methods and those appropriate for the assessment of nanoaerosol exposure. This book presents new ideas and methods to measure the surface area and local deposition of nanoparticles in the lungs and the true value of respirators. It proposes a nanoparticle dosimetric road map that can be used as a general strategy for the assessment of the dose, which is the most important physical cause of adverse effects on health in the case of nanoparticle exposure. The book suggests the use of 1 nm radioactive particles, called unattached activity of radon progeny, as a safe experimental tool for nanoparticle studies, including human studies. It discusses the problems related to the general strategy of risk assessment in nanoparticle exposure and concrete parameters related to dosage. The ideas presented in this book help close the gaps in our knowledge of aerosols in the nanometer range and improve our understanding of nanoparticle behavior in the air and in the human body.
