The quantum vacuum is the ground state of energy for the Universe, the lowest possible level. Attempts to perceive the vacuum directly only lead to a confrontation with a void, a background that appears to be empty. But, in fact, the quantum vacuum is the source of all potentiality.  2, fiche 1, Anglais, - quantum%20vacuum%20state

Le vide quantique est, contrairement au vide absolu, un état qui n'est ni inerte, ni statique, ni absolu. Il a une dynamique et est en permanence en pleine ébullition; le vide quantique est le théâtre de créations et destructions de particules en tout genre. Il se remplit et se vide donc de lui-même et peut ainsi avoir une température non-nulle.  1, fiche 1, Français, - %C3%A9tat%20de%20vide%20quantique

Once again, the environmental groups appearing before the Committee were opposed to the two recommendations, claiming that they were in fact not necessary. The joint CELA/CIELAP submission to the Committee argued that the criticism that MMLERs are not "scientifically based" was simply out of place and did not reflect the nature of how the regulations were developed and administered. The regulations remain technically defensible since they are based on what is technologically feasible, and not what is required from an ecological point of view. In actual fact, the problem is not the existence of poor science, but rather that the MMLERs are not tough enough to protect local ecosystems.(19) The joint brief went on to note that as a general principle, the natural background levels of metals in waters and sediments are not germane to the notion of technology-based standards.  2, fiche 2, Anglais, - technology%2Dbased%20standard

Dans ce cas-là aussi, les représentants des groupes environnementaux qui ont comparu devant le Comité ont dit s'opposer aux deux recommandations, en déclarant qu'elles étaient inutiles. Les auteurs du mémoire conjoint que l'ACDE et l'ICDPE ont fait parvenir au Comité soutiennent en effet que la critique de ceux qui prétendent que le RELMM n'est pas scientifique n'est pas fondée, car elle ne tient pas compte de sa démarche d'élaboration, ni de la manière de l'appliquer. Le RELMM se défend du point de vue technique puisqu'il est basé sur ce que la technologie rend possible et non sur ce qu'il faudrait du point de vue écologique. En réalité, le problème n'est pas la piètre valeur scientifique des données, mais plutôt le fait que le RELMM n'est pas assez strict pour protéger les écosystèmes locaux. Les auteurs n'ont pas manqué de souligner que, en règle générale, les niveaux naturels ambiants de métaux dans l'eau et les sédiments n'ont rien à voir avec l'idée de normes fondées sur la technologie.  1, fiche 2, Français, - norme%20fond%C3%A9e%20sur%20la%20technologie

Although there are no scientifically proven minimum safe limits for concentrations of certain toxic and carcinogenic chemicals in food, air and water, such "safe limits" in fact have been set by the appropriate food and drug administrations or their equivalents. The implication is that a dose of low-level radiation with no acceptable safe level is more health-threatening than a low-level dose of, for example, dioxin. In fact, the Task Force finds it is more reasonable to accept a maximum permissible level for ionizing radiation because background radiation is a ubiquitous, naturally occurring phenomenon, whereas there is no naturally occurring level of polychlorinated biphenyls.  3, fiche 3, Anglais, - safe%20limit

In 1965, Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson announced the discovery of microwave radiation which uniformly filled the sky and had a blackbody temperature of about 3. 5 K. The pair had been testing a new radio amplifier that was supposed to be exceptionally quiet.... After many attempts to account for all extraneous sources of radio noise, they came to the conclusion that there was a general background of radiation at the radio frequency they were using. After discussions with a group led by Robert Dicke at nearby Princeton University it became clear that they had in fact detected remnant radiation from the origin of the universe.  3, fiche 4, Anglais, - fossil%20radiation

Vieux de douze milliards d'années puisque s'étant propagé pendant ce laps de temps mais aussi étonnamment jeune puisque témoin de phases fort précoces de l'histoire du monde, ce rayonnement fossile diffus constitue l'une des preuves éclatantes de la justesse de l'idée connue sous le nom de «big bang» selon laquelle notre monde est né dans un état de compression extrême pour entamer une prodigieuse expansion. [...] Pour avoir découvert ce rayonnement fossile en 1963, [...] Penzias et Wilson reçurent le prix Nobel.  2, fiche 4, Français, - rayonnement%20fossile
