Learning Objectives. I must be able to recall when ionising radiation is emitted. . I should be able to describe the three types of ionising radiation.. I might be able to explain the dangers of ionising radiation.. High Energy & Cosmic Ray Research Ctr.. North Bengal University. TeV Neutrinos and Gamma rays from Pulsars/Magnetars. Introduction. The energy spectrum of cosmic rays extends to extremely high energies, values exceeding 10. Wavelength the size of an atom. Frequencies above UV. Uses of X-rays. Used in airports to examine luggage for the presence of dangerous weapons or bombs or for illegal transit of goods. . used to detect structural deficits or cracks in metal objects such as bridges and aircraft that are likely to be missed by the human eye.

Gamma-rays are ideal probes of a subset of the radioactive isotopes produced in astrophysical transients.. A number of new gamma-ray missions are being developed (ASCENT, COSI, LOX, AMEGO, …) that will improve sensitivities by over an order of magnitude, allowing us to probe more transients and a broader range of isotopes*..

What makes gamma-ray observations distinctive?. X Rays. Are electromagnetic radiations having wavelength of order of 1. Are highly energetic radiations which are emitted when energetic electrons are made to incident on a metallic target.. Were discovered by German Physicist W.C. Roentgen in1895..
