7 types of electromagnetic radiation.

The fact that electromagnetic radiation travels in waves lets us measure the different kind by wavelength or how long the waves are.

Sensors developed for this application [2], [3].


There are two outstanding examples of light behaving like particles.

Conclusions 9 1. That is one way we can tell the kinds of radiation apart from each other. Electromagnetic radiation is self-sustaining energy with electric and magnetic field components. Thus, all types of electromagnetic waves, photons of power waves possess the least energy and gamma-ray photons possess the greatest energy. The most surprising outcome was the discovery that under many circumstances light and other forms of electromagnetic radiation behave like particles instead of waves. References Main uncertainty due to lack of very high granularity shower data. The waves propagate through a vacuum at the speed of light.

Light The visible region of the spectrum is the one most familiar to us, because as a species we have adapted receptors (eyes) that are sensitive to the most intense electromagnetic radiation emitted by the Sun, the closest extraterrestrial source. Since life on earth is bathed constantly in all forms of electromagnetic radiation, scientists must be aware of the potential risks, as well as benefits of exposures to electromagnetic waves. We may remember back then that it was presumed there was a “fluid” which inhabited space that was the medium electromagnetic radiation propagated on. Electromagnetic radiation is commonly referred to as "light", EM, EMR, or electromagnetic waves. Although all kinds of electromagnetic radiation are released from the Sun, our atmosphere stops some kinds from getting to us. The most surprising outcome was the discovery that under many circumstances light and other forms of electromagnetic radiation behave like particles instead of waves. There are two outstanding examples of light behaving like particles. Introduction DECAL concept described elsewhere [1]. The oscillations of the electric and magnetic field components are perpendicular to each other and to the direction in …
