“…The duration of irradiation by RF /MW of various frequencies and intensities sufficiently to kill an animal (immediately or within a few days after exposure) has been studied (Michaelson et al, 1967;Deichmann et al, 1959a,b,c;Mirutenko, 1964a;Tyagin, 1957;Lobanova, 1960;Addington et al, 1961;Fukalova, 1964;Solov'ev, 1963;Schrot and Hawkins, 1974). Deichmann et al (1959c) investigated the thermal stress effects of exposure to an interrupted microwave field (simulating the continuous 360° sweeping action of a radar scanner).…”
