This study simulated 1 g and 10 g peak spatial SAR (psSAR) in classroom settings where each student uses a Wi‑Fi laptop at 2.45 GHz and 100 mW. Maximum simulated psSAR values were reported to be below ICNIRP and IEEE recommended limits, but desk spacing and multi-user configurations could substantially increase psSAR…

This paper reports four experiments examining how a ringing cell phone affects cognitive performance in laboratory tasks and a college classroom lecture. In the lab, auditory conditions (including a standard cell phone ring) produced slower responses than silence, with slower recovery in the ring and song conditions.…
