Brave New World is about to hit cinemas, bringing with it the gamma-ray-powered Red Hulk. Here's what you need to know about that high-energy radiation.

Gamma rays are much shorter in wavelength than visible light, and carry a lot more energy—so much energy, that here on Earth we typically detect strong gamma-ray bursts only from the detonation ...

It includes radio waves, microwaves, infrared light, visible light, ultraviolet, X-rays, and gamma rays. Each type of light has a different wavelength and frequency. Understanding the electromagnetic ...

Radio waves have the longest wavelengths and gamma rays have the shortest wavelengths. Radio waves have the longest wavelengths of all EM waves. Radio waves have wavelengths ranging from thousands ...

Here's a tour that begins with radio waves and takes you through microwaves, infrared radiation, light, ultraviolet radiation, and X-rays. The tour ends with gamma rays, the potentially deadly ...

"We were lucky to detect a gamma-ray flare from M87 during this Event Horizon Telescope's multi-wavelength campaign," says Giacomo Principe, one of the paper coordinators, a researcher at the ...
