If you use a cell phone or other DEVICE, this is a must listen:

10. But the basic science does not back up that claim.

So the claim does not rise to the level of plausibility. If it was true, we'd be in huge trouble from visible light which has a much higher energy density than anything in the radio spectrum.

Go back to the very simple equation in my previous post.


What this says is that the energy of a photon (particle of light) is directly proportional to its frequency (nu). The higher the frequency, the higher the energy; the lower the frequency, the lower the energy.

This simple equation won Albert Einstein the Nobel Prize in 1921. (He came up with it in 1905, his annus mirabilus when he wrote four papers, any of which were Nobel Prize worthy. In addition to this one on the photoelectric effect there were two on special relativity -- including the E=mc^2 one, and one on Brownian Motion which nailed down once and for all the atomic theory of matter.)

The Nobel Committee chose the very simple equation above because it started the quantum revolution.

Relax and enjoy your cell phone. If you have a Bluetooth headset, that's great. However, don't they also operate on radio waves next to your head?

The answer is, "YUP!"

If the above equation is correct -- it appears to be in all experiments -- I would worry about visible light before anything from a cell phone.

As I wrote above, one study won't settle this. It's plausible, but not likely.

Best regards.
