[cdn-nucl-l] LNT model



Is there someone who can point me to a site which
will explain exactly what the "LNT" model is and
what it predicts? I gather that it assumes that
the effects of radiation at low doses can be
extrapolated in a LINEAR fashion from the effects
of a high level of radiation.

This does not seem kosher to me, based upon the
effects of pharmaceuticals, etc...
