  • Michael Dixon, who studies agriculture at the University of Guelph in Canada and wasn't involved in the study, said this research did a reasonable job replicating the cosmic radiation considering that it's impossible to copy it perfectly. (insidescience.org)
  • One of the first questions that Dixon and his co-workers plan to study is whether or not plants can survive the exposure to lunar radiation. (insidescience.org)
  • Naomi Hamburg, MD, the Joseph A. Vita Professor of Medicine at Boston University Chobanian & Avedisian School of Medicine, has been awarded a five-year, $3.7 million grant from the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute for her research study, "Endothelial Cell Health Across the Spectrum of Cardiometabolic Disease. (news-medical.net)
  • But ongoing research and study has taught us a great deal in the course of human history. (universetoday.com)
  • This experiment was designed to study how particle impacts affect a memory card - in other words, how the radiation environment influences the storage error rate (bit flips). (dlr.de)
  • One aim of STRONG-2020 is to promote the access to the important large research infrastructures in Europe to study the properties of strongly interacting matter under extreme conditions and to transfer the resulting technical progress of the experiments into new applications. (gsi.de)
  • Growing of single crystals (1972), production of thin layers, research of liquid crystals (1972), production and study of metallic glasses (1976). (szfki.hu)
  • Our study is the first to assign two estimated radiation doses to each specific flight: one dose from ever-present galactic cosmic radiation, and one dose from a solar particle event if one occurred during that flight. (cdc.gov)
  • Looking at both galactic cosmic radiation and solar particle event radiation doses together, our study suggests that cosmic radiation exposure of 0.1 milligray (mGy) or more may be associated with a 70% increased risk of miscarriage for flight attendants in the first trimester, compared to similar pregnant flight attendants whose flights exposed them to less than 0.1 mGy of radiation in first trimester. (cdc.gov)
  • Only one-third of physicians had received a radiation protection course during their undergraduate study or in the workplace. (who.int)
  • Furthermore, this article summarizes James McCanney s theoretical and practical research which leads to the conclusion that NASA is attempting to distract attention from the very real dangers of imminent Earth changes. (greatdreams.com)
  • Students can search the NASA SOHO https://soho.nascom.nasa.gov to research other forms of solar activity. (polartrec.com)
  • He has recieved funding from NASA through NIAC (NASA Institute for Advanced Concepts) to research the idea of a superconducting magnetic radiation shielding system to supplement (or replace) traditional passive shielding. (marsnews.com)
