This in vitro study examined how cortical neuron morphology and cell type relate to responses under subthreshold and suprathreshold uniform electric fields in rat motor cortex slices. The authors report that morphology correlates with subthreshold somatic polarization and that layer V pyramidal neurons are predicted…
Genetic damage in mammalian somatic cells exposed to radiofrequency radiation: a meta-analysis of data from 63 publications (1990-2005)

A meta-analysis of 63 publications assessed whether radiofrequency (RF) radiation exposure is associated with genetic damage in mammalian somatic cells using multiple genotoxicity endpoints. Overall differences between RF-exposed and control conditions were reported as small, though statistically significant…

This study tested electromagnetic interference from GSM and CDMA mobile phones placed one foot from ICU devices (syringe pump, mechanical ventilator, bedside monitor) in off, standby, and talk modes. EMI was observed for the syringe pump in talk mode, with a mean 2.66 ml variation between calculated and delivered…
Sine-Gordon description of Beresinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless vortices in superconductors immersed in an external magnetic field.

Jan 1, 2007
This theoretical paper investigates Beresinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless vortex physics in two-dimensional superconductors under an external magnetic field using a sine-Gordon field-theory approach. The authors state that the model yields a straightforward definition of field-induced magnetization. They also report that…
