of Hiroshima and Nagasaki - this link is to the history of the RERF
which traces its roots to the Japanese medical teams and US scientists
who began examining survivors in September 1945

Forty-three contaminant-specific sheets (29 radionuclides and 14
chemicals) address: key properties, origin, and use; general
environmental levels; distribution in the body; primary health effects;
and standard values for estimating risk. Six companion radiological fact
sheets provide context for: ionizing radiation; radioactive properties;
natural decay series (uranium, radium, thorium); transuranic series;
radiological dispersal device; and health-based radionuclide
concentrations in drinking water and air (the latter two focus on
homeland security context). Two fact sheets address chemical mixtures,
to frame cumulative risk assessments and the evaluation of interactions.
