Higher energy transmission

The above data is found to be compatible with modern (IAEA / NCRP) data for high energy x-ray transmission in lead. From around 4-30 MV a TVL (10th value layer) for x-rays in lead is found to be 5.7 cm.

Radiation is one of the important factors in evolution. It causes mutation, and some level of mutation is actually good for evolution
