Our stationary probes measure the local dose rate at a specific location around the clock. So we always know how much it is radiating at that place. But in order to determine what is radiating there - i.e. which substances - we need a different kind of measurement. We carry them out at regular inter
You don't see it, and you don't feel it: radiation. Nevertheless, humans are always exposed to radiation. Shielding makes sense. Natural radioactive substances in soils and rocks emit radiation. And it comes not only from the earth, but also from heaven. The higher, the stronger the cosmic rays. I
Wherever we are, we are exposed to radiation. Sometimes we feel them, often we don't even notice them. People have always lived with natural radiation. Radiation has an effect on people and their health. But how exactly does it work, when and how do you have to protect yourself? The Federal Office f
Tim's sister Vicky works in radiation research. She shows him where we encounter radiation everywhere - and what it actually is. #strahlenschutz #strahlung #radioaktivität #radioaktiv #uv #mobilfunk #handy #röntgen Original: "Federal Office for Radiation Protection" Original: German. All translat

We operate a nationwide monitoring network for radioactivity in Germany. It is used for the constant monitoring of artificial and natural environmental radioactivity. If the values were to go up, our experts would notice it very quickly. The video shows how the measurement network works. More detail
Radioactive substances are found everywhere in our environment. They can enter the human body through inhalation or food. In the video, Dr. Udo Gerstmann explains how to measure radioactivity in the body with a whole-body counter and when it is used. Original: "Federal Office for Radiation Protecti
If there is a suspicion of increased radiation exposure, there are various ways to determine it. One possibility is biological dosimetry, which can be used to estimate the level of individual radiation exposure. In the video, Dr. Ulrike Kulka explains how radiation exposure in humans can be biologic
Our measuring network for the current natural radiation exposure (or local dose rate, ODL for short) is managed from six monitoring network nodes. In this video, we introduce you to our colleagues from the measuring network nodes in Berlin. More information is also available from https://odlinfo.bfs
How to measure your radiator for a Fichman Furniture Radiator Cover. This video shows a simple and straightforward process to measure your radiator. We love to help - if you have questions call us at 1-888-RAD-COVS or email a photo of your radiator to service@fichman.com! A written version of the
Our sun. Their radiation provides light and warmth and thus promotes well-being. But the sun's ultraviolet radiation can also be harmful to health. Original: "Federal Office for Radiation Protection" Original: German. All translations in this video have been done by the alugha AI.
After the end of the Cold War, the warning offices were gradually closed and the radioactivity measurement network was transferred to the Federal Office for Radiation Protection. In the video, we explain what changes this has meant. More information about the monitoring network can be found on http
