This 8-year longitudinal study of thermal power station workers assessed co-exposure to occupational noise and ELF-EMFs in relation to PSA levels. Noise exposure (LAeq) was associated with increased log-PSA in both unadjusted and adjusted models, and the association persisted after adjusting for ELF-EMFs. ELF-EMF…

This paper presents a thermodynamic model intended to explain how extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields (ELF-EMFs) may interact with cells. The authors propose that ELF-EMFs directly interfere with the cellular membrane, producing biological responses linked to energy conversion and changes in flows across…

This study evaluated 12 mT electromagnetic fields (100–400 Hz) applied during 30 minutes of cold storage (4 °C) of grass carp. EMF exposure was associated with increased CaATPase activity and frequency-dependent changes in protein and lipid oxidation. NMR results suggested altered water–protein interactions, and the…

This review discusses longstanding EMF theories of mind/brain integration as a potential explanation for unified conscious experience and aspects of the "hard problem" of consciousness. It notes that EMFs are measurable and that correlates have been reported with changes in consciousness, sensory perception, and…

This cross-sectional survey in five French cities assessed whether measured RF-EMF exposure from mobile-phone base stations was associated with self-reported non-specific and insomnia-like symptoms among residents living within 250 m of a base station. Overall, measured base-station exposure was not associated with…

This in vitro study used spectroscopic and conductometry methods to examine binding between human hemoglobin and an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitory peptide, with and without electromagnetic field (EMF) exposure. The authors report that EMF changed the Hb–ACEIP interaction and that binding was associated with…

This EBioMedicine commentary discusses tumour-specific amplitude-modulated RF EMF as an anti-cancer therapy for hepatocellular carcinoma and highlights Cav3.2 (CACNA1H) T-type calcium channels as a proposed mediator of the effect. It notes that the reported whole-body averaged SAR in a treated HCC patient was below…

This in vitro study exposed human mesenchymal stem cell pellets undergoing chondrogenesis to simulated microgravity (SMG), low-frequency EMF (5 mT, 15 Hz), or both for 3 weeks. SMG significantly changed gene expression and reduced chondrogenic marker expression (including COL2A1). LF-EMF alone showed no…

This paper describes a SAR measurement system for a 3G mobile phone (1718.5 MHz) using brain phantom material in a Perspex box sized to a small rat volume, with induced fields measured at multiple locations. SAR was computed from induced-field measurements and also estimated experimentally via temperature rise, with…

This engineering simulation study models colloidal particle transport and deposition in a membrane filtration channel at a particle volume fraction of 10%. The model couples a dynamically updating crossflow velocity field with particle-particle and particle-membrane interaction potentials (electrostatic double layer…

This paper presents a theoretical description of nonequilibrium dynamics in a three-dimensional Fermi-Hubbard model driven by an external electric field. The authors report direction-dependent damping of Bloch oscillations and the emergence of a long-lived transient prethermalized state over a broad range of field…

This engineering/materials study describes a template-free solution-phase method to synthesize well-aligned nickel nanochains under applied magnetic fields. The authors report that nanochain size and morphology can be tuned by reaction temperature and magnetic field conditions, and explain alignment via magnetic…

This theoretical study analyzes quench dynamics in the Kondo model on the Toulouse line in the presence of a local magnetic field. The authors report exact analytical results for local spin dynamics, finding that relaxation timescales are set by the Kondo scale. They also describe damped transient oscillations in…

This materials-physics study investigated quadrupolar hyperfine interactions of (111)In→(111)Cd probes in polycrystalline Zr4Al3 and Hf4Al3 containing minority (Zr/Hf)3Al2 phases. The authors observed a strong preference of (111)In solutes for the minority (Zr/Hf)3Al2 phases. Ab initio EFG calculations were used to…

This theoretical/physics study investigates spectral properties of a spin-1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnet on an anisotropic triangular lattice in a magnetic field. It reports that interchain interactions in a magnetic field generate dominant modes that behave as quasiparticles, featuring anomalous incommensurate…

This study measured satellite structures of second- and third-harmonic spectra reflected from solid targets during femtosecond laser–plasma interactions using an optical multi-channel spectrometer. Red-shifted satellite structures of 2ω0 and 3ω0 were observed, and at ~10^18 W/cm^2 the inferred spontaneous magnetic…
