[ RadSafe ] LNT and Radiation-caused deaths

[Otto G. Raabe]

It is the linear A-Bomb survivor graph that provides the cornerstone for LNT.

To end LNT, we must explain that linear relationship.

I did that in my 2011 Health Physics Forum paper.

If you did not see it, send me an e-mail and I will send you a copy.

The answer is that the linear increase in cancers above background is 
the result
of the lifetime promotion of naturally occurring cancers in the Japanese
who were instantaneously exposed.

It is NOT the result of cancer induction.
