gamma rays

English - Turkish

Definition of gamma rays in English Turkish dictionary: gama ışınları; (Askeri) GAMA IŞINLARI: Bir nükleer tepkime sonucunda atomun çekirdeğinden yayımlanan, yüksek enerjili elektromanyetik radyasyon. Gama ışınları ve çok yüksek enerjili X-ışınları yalnızca kaynakları itibariyle ayırt edilir. X-ışınları atom çekirdeğinden kaynaklanmayıp diğer yollarla üretilirler; gamma ışınları
gamma ray: gama işini
gamma ray: (Nükleer Bilimler) gama ışını,gama ışınları

Definition of gamma rays in English English dictionary: plural form of gamma ray; electromagnetic radiation from the nuclei of atoms (similar to X rays but with a shorter wave length); Very penetrating rays not appreciably deflected by a magnetic or electric field, emitted by radioactive substances; The prevailing view is that they are non- periodic ether pulses differing from Röntgen rays only in being more penetrating; Gamma rays are a type of electromagnetic radiation that has a shorter wavelength and higher energy than X-rays
gamma ray: Very high frequency (and therefore very high energy) electromagnetic radiation emitted as a consequence of radioactivity
gamma ray: Electromagnetic radiation emitted by radioactive decay and having energies in a range from ten thousand (10) electron volts. a beam of light with a short wavelength, that can pass through solid objects radi'ation. Penetrating very short-wavelength electromagnetic radiation, similar to an X ray but of higher energy, that is emitted spontaneously by some radioactive substances (see gamma decay, radioactivity). Gamma radiation also originates in the decay of certain subatomic particles, and in particle-antiparticle annihilation (See also antimatter). Gamma rays can initiate nuclear fission, can be absorbed by ejection of an electron (see photoelectric effect), and can be scattered by free electrons (see Compton effect)
