  Cell phone radiation chart - CNET reviews 

  http://reviews.cnet.com/4520-6602_7-5020355-1.html?tag=lnav

  What it all means According to the Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association (CTIA), specific absorption rate , or SAR, is "a way of measuring the quantity of radiofrequency (RF) energy that is ... absorbed by the body." For a phone to pass FCC certification, that phone's maximum SAR level must be less than 1.6W/kg (watts per kilogram). In Europe, the level is capped at 2W/kg while Canada allows a maximum of 1.6W/kg. The SAR level listed in our charts represents the highest SAR level with the phone next to the ear as tested by the FCC. Keep in mind that it is possible for the SAR level to vary between different transmission bands and that different testing bodies can obtain different results. Also, it's possible for results to vary between different editions of the same phone (such as a handset that's offered by multiple carriers). It's important to note that in publishing this list are we in no way implying that cell phone use is or isn't harmful to your health. While research abou   [More...] [Less...]

  Nuclear Energy in the Nethis context the Agency might best advance its mission of ensuring the peaceful, safe and secure use of that energy sourcext Quarter Century: The IAEA’s Role, Gareth Evans 

  http://www.crisisgroup.org/home/index.cfm?id=5089&l=1

  Concluding Report to General Conference by Gareth Evans, President, International Crisis Group, as Chair of International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Scientific Forum 2007, Vienna, 20 September 2007 ... This year’s Scientific Forum, with 250 specialist participants meeting in the margins of this General Conference in this 50th Anniversary year of the IAEA, was given the daunting task of exploring and reporting back to you on how the world’s nuclear energy future might unfold over the next 25 years, and how in this context the Agency might best advance its mission of ensuring the peaceful, safe and secure use of that energy source. As the Forum Chair, I was given the even more daunting task (thankfully with much helpful input from the very professional scientific staff of the Agency and the session moderators) of distilling for you, in terms that you will find both interesting and of some practical utility, the content of 25 excellent presentations, spread over two full days, and involvi   [More...] [Less...]

  Nanotechnology: A Policy Primer [pdf]

  http://www.fas.org/sgp/crs/misc/RL34511.pdf

  Order Code RL34511 Nanotechnology: A Policy Primer May 20, 2008 John F. Sargent Specialist in Science and Technology Policy Resources, Science, and Industry Division Nanotechnology: A Policy Primer Summary ... Nanoscale science, engineering and technology — commonly referred to collectively as nanotechnology — is believed by many to offer extraordinary economic and societal benefits. Congress has demonstrated continuing support for nanotechnology and has directed its attention primarily to three topics that may affect the realization of this hoped for potential: federal research and development (R&D) in nanotechnology; U.S. competitiveness; and environmental, health, and safety (EHS) concerns. This report provides an overview of these topics — which are discussed in more detail in current and upcoming CRS reports — and two others: nanomanufacturing and public understanding of and attitudes toward nanotechnology. The development of this emerging field has been fostered by significant and su   [More...] [Less...]
