- Abstract
The article describes the methods to estimate exposure to cosmic radiation and circadian disruption for flight attendants. It develops a method for estimating cosmic radiation effective doses and two metrics for circadian rhythm disruption for each subject. It concludes that the domicile-exposure matrix is used to calculate exposure estimates for a cohort mortality study of former flight attendants.
