LNT is the theory that radiation harm is additive. Harm is a function of cumulative dose and nothing else. Exposure period and dose rate are irrelevant. LNT effectively denies our ability to repair radiation damage. LNT has been the foundation of our radiation protection regulation, with pernicious results, except for our radiation minders.
A rising chorus has called for replacing LNT with a model that does recognize our repair ability. But the Empire is now fighting back.
A recently released INWORK study reasserts the validity of LNT.
