Do you know that radiation is in the air we breathe, the food we eat, the water we drink? Ionizing radiation in particular is a double-edged sword that it is used to cure cancer but can also cause cancer: How could that be? . transmitted. absorbed. reflected. 1. transmission. Radiation passes through atmosphere unimpeded.. Shortwave and longwave “windows” . 2. absorption. Energy is transferred to absorber; absorber emits energy. ENVIRONMENT. Environment - the social and cultural forces that shape the life of a person or a population.. ENVIRONMENT. How can environment impact human response?. Past Environment. “I come from …….. What are they? . exposure … contamination. Are they the same?. Radioactivity. Spontaneous emission of radiation from the nucleus of an unstable isotope. Disintegration Decay. Demonstrate Decontamination. Candace Davison. Brenden Heidrich. Penn State University. Michael Erdman. PSU Milton S. Hershey Medical Center. Mary Lou Dunzik-Gougar, Ph.D..

Goal: develop . a system . that . provides . space weather services to end users. •. Radiation biology . is the study of the action of ionizing radiation on living organisms . •The action is very complex, involving physics, chemistry, and biology . –Different types of ionizing radiation .
