Radio frequency (RF) is a measurement representing the oscillation rate of electromagnetic radiation spectrum, or electromagnetic radio waves, from frequencies ranging from 300 gigahertz (GHz) to as low as 9 kilohertz (kHz). With the use of antennas and transmitters, an RF field can be used for...

A wave is characterized by its frequency, wavelength, amplitude and polarization. The possible frequencies of electromagnetic waves extend from the extremely high frequencies of the gamma rays to the relatively low frequencies of the radio waves. Visible light is...
Gamma rays are photons that are emitted from the nucleus. Often an atom in an excited state will de-excite by emitting a gamma ray. Gamma rays are similar to light waves and x-rays, except they are usually much higher frequency and consequently, more energetic. This radiation has no charge...
Gamma Rays:All the atoms are composed of the nucleus with protons and neutrons as part of the nucleus. The nucleus may sometime get unstable due to some reason and achieve stability after undergoing a radioactive decay. This decay is of three types, alpha decay beta decay and gamma decay....
The recent Madala hypothesis, a conjecture that seeks to explain anomalies within Large Hadron Collider (LHC) data (particularly in the transverse momentum of the Higgs boson), is interesting for more than just a statistical hint at unknown and unpredicted physics. This is because the model itself...
Gamma-ray astronomy has become a rich field of research and matured significantly since the launch of NASA's Compton Gamma Ray Observatory in April 1991. Studies of the diffuse gamma-ray emission of the Galaxy can now be performed in far more detail and extended into the MeV regime, ...

Frequencies and wavelengths vary substantially from one waveform to the next. For example, gamma rays can have frequencies greater than 1020Hz and wavelengths less than 10-12m. However, radio waves, which lie at the other end of the EM spectrum, can have frequencies below 3,000 Hz and wavele...
Both gamma rays andx-raysare forms of electromagnetic radiation. Their electromagnetic spectrum overlaps, so how can you tell them apart? Physicists differentiate the two types of radiation based on their source, where gamma rays originate in the nucleus from decay, while x-rays originate in thee...
