The term " laser " originated as an acronym for Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation.

In 1917, Albert Einstein established the theoretical foundations for the laser and the maser in the paper Zur Quantentheorie der Strahlung ( On the Quantum Theory of Radiation ); via a re-derivation of Max Planck ’ s law of radiation, conceptually based upon probability coefficients ( Einstein coefficients ) for the absorption, spontaneous emission, and stimulated emission of electromagnetic radiation ; in 1928, Rudolf W. Ladenburg confirmed the existences of the phenomena of stimulated emission and negative absorption ; in 1939, Valentin A. Fabrikant predicted the use of stimulated emission to amplify “ short ” waves ; in 1947, Willis E. Lamb and R. C. Retherford found apparent stimulated emission in hydrogen spectra and effected the first demonstration of stimulated emission ; in 1950, Alfred Kastler ( Nobel Prize for Physics 1966 ) proposed the method of optical pumping, experimentally confirmed, two years later, by Brossel, Kastler, and Winter.

Historically, the word " maser " is derived from the original upper-case acronym MASER, which stands for " Microwave Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation ".

Neptunium ( named for the planet Neptune, the next planet out from Uranus, after which uranium was named ) was discovered by Edwin McMillan and Philip H. Abelson in 1940 at the Berkeley Radiation Laboratory of the University of California, Berkeley.

Neurosurgeons are involved in Stereotactic Radiosurgery along with Radiation Oncologists for tumor and AVM treatment.

Stimulated emission was first observed in the microwave region of the electromagnetic spectrum, giving rise to the acronym MASER for Microwave Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation.

Radiation and radioactive substances are used for diagnosis, treatment, and research.

Radiation used for cancer treatment is called ionizing radiation because it forms ions in the cells of the tissues it passes through as it dislodges electrons from atoms.

Radiation may be prescribed by a radiation oncologist with intent to cure (" curative ") or for adjuvant therapy.

Combat rules have many options and take into account three types of energy for damage: Kinetic, Electric, and Radiation.

However, a spokesman for the Institute of Radiation Physics stressed that the " symptoms described in Arafat's medical reports were not consistent with polonium-210 and that conclusions could not be drawn as to whether the Palestinian leader was poisoned or not.

* Fatal Dose: Radiation Deaths linked to AECL Computer Errors ( Barbara Wade Rose, Canadian Coalition for Nuclear Responsibility )

The efficiency of what later was to be called the " cap-and-trade " approach to air pollution abatement was first demonstrated in a series of micro-economic computer simulation studies between 1967 and 1970 for the National Air Pollution Control Administration ( predecessor to the United States Environmental Protection Agency's Office of Air and Radiation ) by Ellison Burton and William Sanjour.

The site was already home to several University of California Radiation Laboratory projects that were too large for its location in the hills above the Berkeley campus, including one of the first experiments in the magnetic approach to confined thermonuclear reactions ( i. e. fusion ).

Around this device, Lawrence built up his Radiation Laboratory, which would become the world's foremost laboratory for the new field of nuclear physics research in the 1930s.

Circa 1948, the club obtained space in Room 20E-214, on the third floor of Building 20, a " temporary " World War II-era structure, sometimes called " the Plywood Palace ," which had been home to the MIT Radiation Lab during World War II.

Yallambie is home to the Federal Government agency Australian Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety Agency ( ARPANSA ).

Radiation therapy ( in American English ), radiation oncology, or radiotherapy ( in the UK, Canada and Australia ), sometimes abbreviated to XRT or DXT, is the medical use of ionizing radiation, generally as part of cancer treatment to control or kill malignant cells.

Radiation oncology is the medical specialty concerned with prescribing radiation, and is distinct from radiology, the use of radiation in medical imaging and diagnosis.

Secondary payloads: IMAX Cargo Bay Camera ( ICBC ) to document operations outside crew cabin and hand-held IMAX camera for use inside crew cabin ; Ascent Particle Monitor ( APM ) to detect particulate matter in payload bay ; Protein Crystal Growth ( PCG ) to provide data on growing protein crystals in microgravity ; Radiation Monitoring Equipment III ( RME III ) to measure gamma ray levels in crew cabin ; Investigations into Polymer Membrane Processing ( IPMP ) to determine porosity control in microgravity environment ; Shuttle Student involvement program ( SSIP ) experiment to study effects of near-weightlessness on electrical arcs, and Air Force Maui Optical Site ( AMOS ) experiment.

Radiation therapy ( also called radiotherapy ) is the use of high-energy rays to damage cancer cells and stop them from growing.

Radiation therapists use advanced computer systems to operate sophisticated radiation therapy equipments such as Linear Accelerators.

Health physics or The Physics of Radiation Protection is the science concerned with the recognition, evaluation, and control of health hazards to permit the safe use and application of ionizing radiation.

Theoretical discovery of X-Ray Transition Radiation, which was directly proportional to the Lorenz factor, made possible further use of TR in the physics of high energies.

It ran an operating system with support for assembly language and Fortran programming and usually came with end user software for Radiation Treatment Planning ( RTP ), for use by a radiation therapist or radiation oncologist, and Hospital Patient Records.

The majority of these literature citations have been garnered by searching on variations of the author ’ s name on Google, Google Scholar, and the Energy Citations Database, and use of a bibliography of N. V. Timofeev-Resovskij provided by the Laboratory of Radiation Biology of the JINR, Dubna.

Another limitation of slipspace travel as stated in the Halo universe, is that whenever a ship carrying plutonium for use in nuclear weapons enters normal space a large amount of Cherenkov Radiation is released which can alert any nearby forces of the slipspace re-entry.
