 Gamma Radiation Summary
1,176 words, approx. 4 pages Gamma rays are a form of electromagnetic radiation, just like visible light or x rays, but with a much higher energy. The gamma ray spectrum is usually defined as light having a frequency between 1018 and 1021 Hertz. Gamma rays are more energetic than... summary from source:
 Gamma Decay Summary
408 words, approx. 1 pagesGamma decay is one of the three radioactive decay modes available to atomic nuclei, along with alpha and beta decay. In alpha and beta decay, the atomic number of the nucleus changes, but in gamma decay the atomic number does not change. In gamma... summary from source:
 Gamma Ray Summary
342 words, approx. 1 pagesBy 1900, it had become apparent that nuclear radiation consisted of at least two parts, alpha rays and beta rays. These two types of rays were bent in opposite directions by a magnetic field and had, therefore, to consist of charged particles. The two... summary from source:
