2.4E28 Hertz

In 1887 Heinrich Hertz demonstrated the existence of the waves predicted by Maxwell by producing radio waves in his laboratory. It took a bit longer for scientists to discover the higher-energy (shorter wavelength) light in the electromagnetic spectrum.

Wifi occupies the radio frequency band of the electromagnetic spectrum between actual radio waves and microwaves (used to listen to the game, and cook your dinner, respectively).

There are several physical processes that generate cosmic gamma rays:

1. A high-energy particle can collide with another particle.
2. A particle can collide and annihilate with its anti-particle.
3. An element can undergo radioactive decay.
4. A charged particle can be accelerated.

When the gamma photons have higher energies, the dominant interaction becomes the Compton effect, which is the collision between an incoming gamma ray and an electron. The newly-formed gamma ray propagates in turn through the material until its it loses its energy by colliding with an other electron.

The polymer is 11 percent gold by weight, and the gold atoms in the substance efficiently scatter or absorb most forms of radiation, including X-rays. Chemically incorporated into a polymer, gold is less poisonous than other heavy metals that also block radiation.

All of us have a number of naturally occurring radionuclides within our bodies. The major one that produces penetrating gamma radiation that can escape from the body is a radioactive isotope of potassium, called potassium-40. Potassium-40 (40K) is the primary source of radiation from the human body for two reasons.

People who are internally contaminated can expose people near them to radiation from the radioactive material inside their bodies. The body fluids (blood, sweat, urine) of an internally contaminated person can contain radioactive materials.

Biologist Sebastian Alvarado isn’t exactly saying that scientists could create the Incredible Hulk or Captain America. That could theoretically allow scientists to “turn on genes that make your muscles physically large, make you strategically minded, incredibly fast, or increase your stamina,” Alvarado said.

In the films, Banner is a renowned physicist who subjected himself to a gamma radiation experiment designed to replicate a World War II-era “super soldier” program….Bruce Banner (Marvel Cinematic Universe)

Gamma Radiation is a type of radiation being tested by Bruce Banner when he was exposed, turning him into Hulk.
