Volume 2 in this series offers research into two specific regions of the electromagnetic spectrum: extremely low frequency fields and radiofrequency radiation, with particular emphasis on the latter. The investigations explore:
  • melatonin synthesis and exposure to extremely low frequency (ELF) fields
  • ELF fields and cancer
  • computational bioelectromagnetics
  • health effects, including the carcinogenic potential of radiofrequency radiation
  • radiofrequency radiation as an energy source for arrhythmia, and
  • practical applications of the radiofrequency exposure standard.
