Model Ultra wide band exposure to C3H/HeJ mice and analysis of mammary tumors and other papers on cancer.
Details

C3H/HEJ mice were exposed to UWB (rise time 176 ps, fall time 3.5 ns, pulse width 1.9 ns, peak E-field 40 kV/m, repetition rate 1 kHz) for 2 minutes once per week for 12 weeks using a parallel plate transmission line. During the 64 week observation period, no effect of UWB exposure was observed on mammary tumor formation.
