ionizing radiation
rays of rapidly moving subatomic particles x reys or gamma rays sufficiently energetic to cause ionization when absorbed by matter
Corradial
Radiating to or from the same point
Becquerel rays
Radiations first observed by the French physicist Henri Becquerel in working with uranium and its compounds They consist of

Fluorescence
A luminescence emitted by certain substances due to the absorption of radiation at one wavelength and the almost instantaneous re emission of radiation at another usually longer wavelength The re
radioactivity
certain isotopes which causes a spontaneous change in the structure of the nucleus accompanied by emission of energetic radiation The radiation emitted is usually sufficient to cause ionization in matter through which it passes and is therefore
Gamma ray
appreciably deflected by a magnetic or electric field emitted by radioactive substances Gamma rays are photons of electromagnetic radiation having a wavelength shorter than that of X rays i e shorter than 01 nanometer and are correspondingly
dosimeter badge
a dosimeter cosisting of a radiation sensitive material such as film worn in a small package on a persons clothing to record the accumulated
Roumlntgen ray
surface of a solid as the wall of the vacuum tube but now it refers specifically to electromagnetic radiation having wavelengths from 10 3 nm to 10 nm immediately below ultraviolet radiation on the wavelength scale Roumlntgen
nuclear magnetic resonance
The specific absorption and re emission of electromagnetic radiation at characteristic wavelengths by atomic nuclei in a magnetic field It is abbreviated NMR The wavelength of the
laser
applications in science and technology The beam is produced by boosting the majority of the electrons in specific radiation absorbing atoms in a medium into a higher energy level from which they are stimulated by their own
