A Comparative Evaluation of the Energy of Lethal Doses of Gamma Radiation, Visible Light and the Energy of Cellular Basal Metabolism (K Stravnitelnoi Otsenke Energii Letalnykh Doz Gamma-Izlucheniya, Vidimogo Seveta i Energii Osnovnogo Obmena Kletki),

Abstract

A comparison is made of the energy of lethal doses of gamma radiation and visible light. It is determined that the energy of the lethal dose of gamma radiation is many orders of magnitude lower than the energy of a lethal dose of visible light and the energy of the basal metabolism of a cell.
