This theoretical biophysics study models the radical pair mechanism as an open quantum system to derive an explicit dependence of magnetic-field effects on the spin coherence relaxation time (τ) and chemical kinetics (k). It reports a condition under which RPM effects become significant and estimates τ in…

This engineering study describes and simulates a helmet radio-frequency phased array applicator for Thermal Magnetic Resonance (ThermalMR), which combines MRI with targeted RF heating. Using EMF and temperature simulations in a phantom and human head model (including a modeled glioblastoma tumor volume), the authors…

This in vitro study examined whether a 2 GHz RF-EMF exposure could enhance enzyme production in a filamentous fungus. A 10-minute exposure was reported to increase extracellular total protein and α-amylase activity in culture media versus controls, alongside increased α-amylase mRNA and changes consistent with…

This study assessed pre-sowing sunflower seed treatments using vacuum, 5.28 MHz radio-frequency cold plasma, and an electromagnetic field for varying durations. The authors report faster germination with cold plasma (7 min) and EMF (15 min), while germination percentage was mostly unchanged except for a decrease…

This double-blind, randomized, counterbalanced study tested whether acute GSM-like 920 MHz RF-EMF exposure affects visual event-related potentials in 36 healthy adults. Compared with sham, exposure was associated with reduced P1 amplitude and increased anterior N1 latency, with no effects on other ERP measures. The…

This animal study exposed developing Sprague Dawley rats to 2.14 GHz W-CDMA RF-EMF at a whole-body SAR of 0.2 W/kg for 9 weeks (20 h/day). No differences were reported in multiple T cell population measures across blood, spleen, and thymus. Some Th1/Th2-related genes were upregulated (notably in thymus), but serum…

This census-based cohort study in Switzerland examined modeled RF-EMF exposure from broadcast transmitters and childhood cancer risk using two cohort approaches. Across analyses, no association was reported for all cancers or childhood leukemia. Findings for CNS tumors were inconsistent, and the incidence density…

This engineering paper describes a fiber-based method for stable radio-frequency dissemination using a hybrid frequency modulation approach. Two RF components are transmitted simultaneously using a single laser diode, with one component used for phase fluctuation detection and the other providing a compensated stable…

This engineering study demonstrates a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) radio-frequency single-electron transistor (RF-SET) operating at temperatures above 4.2 K. The device was optimized to address high resistance in SOI SETs and showed stable transport characteristics after repeated thermal cycling. RF-SET operation was…

This engineering study reports using radio-frequency (RF)-based dielectric heating to assist NaOH pretreatment of switchgrass to improve enzymatic digestibility. Under the stated conditions, RF-assisted pretreatment produced higher xylose and glucose yields than conventional heating and maintained higher yields at…

This item is a bibliography of reported biological phenomena and clinical manifestations attributed to radio-frequency and microwave radiation. It compiles over 2000 references published up to June 1971, with supplemental listings through Nov. 21, 1971, and gives particular attention to reported effects in humans.…
