Defense Intelligence Reference Document Anomalous And Subacute Field Effects On Human Biological Tissues

UNCLASSIFIED//F8R 8FFIOIAIL 1!!181!! 8HLY
A good many reports from both the human and the animal literature inform us of the
mechanisms by which RF can alter neurochemical processes. These RF effects are not
always elucidated as being high-field, or near-field, but in the laboratory they are "real
field." Understanding the mechanisms is critical to understanding why some neuro-
psychiatric effects, if not "injury" occur in non-specific unclear dose-response patterns:
sleep disturbances, prolonged anxiety, acute and chronic headache including migraines,
seizures, and sensations of peripheral numbness, tingling, and parasthesiae are
reported often by workers near RF emitters that are "safe" and ubiquitously by persons
who encounter anomalous aerospace objects.
There are four separate problems, and four separate approaches to their mitigation in
attempting to analyze the medical literature.
• Much of the literature is with animals, of necessity: humans can not be
experimented upon at the levels of incident energy with which we are most
interested. But the experiments are often well-done, and inform us what is occurring
at the cellular level, from which we can make reasonable prediction and design of
forensic investigations for event investigations.
• By definition, the RF/ EMF/ NIEMR bandwidths are huge, as are the wavelengths
that may {or may not} penetrate skin and skull to actually impinge upon the cells
/neurons to cause putative injury, or sub-clinical effects in psychological and/or
psychiatric effects. We have reason to believe in the real-world the emitters are
complex, and the frequencies are multiple. But while there are currently
approximately 300,000 discreet science citations on "RF injury and brain" and the
good peer-reviewed exemplars number approximately 73, [ 41] the numbers will
admit to a meta-analysis with careful selection; it is clearly possible to determine
mechanism of action for discrete experimental condition, and analysis of inter-
subject and intra-neurochemical findings should be fruitful.
• There are often quite different effects, as a function of epidemiological study designs.
Most of the effects across thousands of subjects show no injury. That is to be
expected; Research is dominated by low-level dose effects {or not}. We should look
for acute, mid-to-high dose experiments in animals, that are peer-reviewed and
thus have been replicated, and which can be compared with accidental exposures
with humans in terms of frequency I bandwidth and dose to tissue.
• Sometimes the best research shows contradictory results. And, examination of the
subtle differences can possibly lead to striking and testable hypothesis - generation.
• There are sufficient behavioral studies in the literature to at least indicate in man
and {other} primates what are the lowest broadband mixed frequency levels at
which no acute effects occur. A seminal study done jointly by Syracuse University
and the Armstrong-Brooks USAF Laboratory defined the levels below which standard
exposures on the order of minutes did not alter neuropsychiatric test scores, or
decision-related scores. Ultra Wide Band (UWB) RF at a pulse repetition rate of 60Hz
and a bandwidth of 100 MHz to 1.5 GHz (peak power levels between 250-500 MHz)
with peak E-Field strength of 250 kV/min repeated exposures produced no
detectable neuro effects [42].
As the purpose of this paper is to argue that data exists to "reverse engineer"
propulsion systems of anomalous aerospace vehicles, independent of origin, based on
