Let's see what we can learn about radiation from some articles in the news. The first homework assignment concerns the following articles. Send me an email if you have any trouble accessing these!
1) BBC article on people who are missing out on radiation treatments for cancer
2) New York Times article on radiation from granite countertops (this is a bit old, but really interesting!)
3) LA Times article on radiation risk from flying
4) BBC article on France compensating nuclear test victims (also old, but a good intro to radiation risk issues)
5) World Health Organization fact sheet on cell phone radiation
Written homework questions are found on the portal page. Happy reading!
