On the principles of evaluation of radiation risk for man
Description
The principles of evaluation of the risks for large human populations by external irradiation and radioactive contamination, due to nuclear arms tests and to emergency situations at nuclear plants and other nuclear productions, are discussed. The 'threshold' and 'non-threshold' onceptions are compared, along with the conception of maximum life-time permissible dose'. Special attention is paid to the ethic side of the evaluation of radiation risk, stated by A.D. Sakharov thirty years ago. 16 refs
