Gamma Radiation
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 freque...

Gamma Decay
Gamma 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 ...

Gamma Ray
By 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...
