My knowledge of the subject comes partly from a barely remembered GCSE in physics, but mainly from the media and from cultural representations of radiation. The influence of these cultural representations means that to the uninformed mind the word &#8216;radiation&#8217; conjures up a series of terrifying scenarios. Twentieth century Hollywood cinema is full of films that both play on and exacerbate a public anxiety about the dangers of ionising radiation. As well as those which deal directly with the issues, such as the 1979 thriller &#8216;The China Syndrome&#8217; or Kubrick&#8217;s &#8216;Dr. Strangelove&#8217; (1964), there are a whole host of films which use nuclear fallout as the basis for the dystopian futures they depict. The critically and commercially successful &#8216;Mad Max: Fury Road&#8217; (2015), for example, presents a post-apocalyptic desert wasteland populated by two-headed lizards and grotesquely mutated human beings. Even Godzilla, in the first Japanese version of the film, was awoken by nuclear testing!<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_94\" aria-labelledby=\"figcaption_attachment_94\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" ><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sites.se.manchester.ac.uk\/nuclearhitchhiker\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/25\/2015\/10\/Two-headed-lizard.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-94 \" src=\"https:\/\/www.sites.se.manchester.ac.uk\/nuclearhitchhiker\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/25\/2015\/10\/Two-headed-lizard-1024x379.png\" alt=\"The post nuclear landscape depicted in 'Mad Max: Fury Road' complete with two-headed lizard \" width=\"671\" height=\"249\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sites.se.manchester.ac.uk\/nuclearhitchhiker\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/25\/2015\/10\/Two-headed-lizard-1024x379.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.sites.se.manchester.ac.uk\/nuclearhitchhiker\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/25\/2015\/10\/Two-headed-lizard-300x111.png 300w, https:\/\/www.sites.se.manchester.ac.uk\/nuclearhitchhiker\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/25\/2015\/10\/Two-headed-lizard-768x284.png 768w, https:\/\/www.sites.se.manchester.ac.uk\/nuclearhitchhiker\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/25\/2015\/10\/Two-headed-lizard.png 1504w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 671px) 100vw, 671px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"figcaption_attachment_94\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The post apocalyptic\u00a0landscape depicted in &#8216;Mad Max: Fury Road&#8217; complete with two-headed lizard<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&#8216;Real-life&#8217; ionising radiation fares little better in the news media: everybody remembers the much reproduced photograph of the hospitalized former secret service agent Alexander Litvinenko, poisoned with a cup of tea containing radioactive isotope polonium-210, and more recently, photographs of malformed and apparently &#8216;radioactive&#8217; daisies growing near Fukushima went viral on social media. The fact that these mutations were likely caused by the biological phenomenon <em>fasciation<\/em>, noted in flowers all over the world and not just radioactive sites, and that the level of radiation at the Fukushima site has actually been classified as &#8216;safe for <a href=\"http:\/\/news.nationalgeographic.com\/2015\/07\/150723-fukushima-mutated-daisies-flowers-radiation-science\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">&#8220;medium to long term habitation&#8221;<\/a>&#8216;, seemed to escape most people&#8217;s attention, something which goes to show the place of radiation in the popular cultural imagination; it is associated with the Cold War, mutation, and the threat of nuclear disaster. The idea that there might be a safe amount seems counter-intuitive.<\/p>\n<p>Yet it takes only a perfunctory Google search to discover that exposure to small amounts of ionising radiation is relatively low risk, and is frequently used in medical tests. Having had two x-rays myself I, like many other people, have been exposed to ionising radiation as a matter of course. Hollywood would have us think that ionising radiation is a force almost beyond human control, that Dr. Frankenstein-like, nuclear researchers have awoken a monster &#8211; in the case of Godzilla, literally &#8211; when in fact the far more common medical uses of ionising radiation paint a different picture, revealing it as a helpful tool rather than a destructive force.<\/p>\n<p><em>Annie Dickinson is a literature Ph.D. student at the University of Manchester.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Annie Dickinson Writing as somebody from outside the world of nuclear research, I (and I&#8217;m sure that many others would agree) feel woefully under informed, not only about the risks associated with ionising radiation, but about ionising radiation itself.
