Most cosmic rays would be deflected by a magnetic field, with the degree of deflection depending upon their mass and the strength of the field. Remember that cosmic rays are largely protons or atomic nuclei and as such most of them do carry a charge and hence would feel the force or influence of electric or magnetic fields. Secondary cosmic rays are partly composed of electrically neutral particles (like neutrons) which would not feel the influence of magnetic fields and hence would not be deflected.
Gamma rays are not deflected by the earth's magnetic field. Electric fields are not deflected by gamma radiation as well.
No, because they are not charged, they are not attracted to either the positive, or the negative side of a magnetic field and therefore pass straight through.
Yes, they can. That's how the spot moves across the screen of an oscilloscope,
and of every old-style TV that has the long-neck picture tube in it.
no
Gamma rays consists of waves of energy associated with electric and magnetic fields resulting from the acceleration of an electric charge
gamma ray
They have no electrical charge and therefore can not be bent by electrical or magnetic fields.
Ionizing radiation is generally divided into electromagnetic radiation and particulate radiation. Charged particles are affected, and this will include protons, beta particles and alpha particles. Neutrons, another particulate form of ionizing radiation, won't be affected. Electromagnetic ionizing radiation, cosmic rays and gamma rays, are not effected.
This is a gamma ray. It is very high frequency electromagnetic radiation.
These are gamma rays and X-rays.

gamma ray
Gamma rays are photons (light particles). Photons are particles with no mass, no charge and no magnetic moment. Hence they cannot be affected by either an electric or a magnetic field.
They have no electrical charge and therefore can not be bent by electrical or magnetic fields.
No. Gamma rays are light, and the only thing that can "hold" light is the "inside" of a black hole's event horizon.
Gamma rays is powerful, high frequency (1019Hz and above) electromagnetic radiation and behaves like the rest of the spectrum. Electromagnetic radiation has some of the properties of both particles, electric and magnetic fields.
No. Gamma rays are photons (light particles). Photons are particles with no mass, no charge and no magnetic moment.
•Electromagnetic energy is a combination of electric and magnetic fields vibrating in relation to another. •Includes -Power -Radio waves -Infrared light -Visible light -Ultraviolet light -X rays -Gamma rays -Cosmic rays •Electromagnetic waves are formed when an electric field (shown as blue arrows) couples with a magnetic field (shown as red arrows). •The magnetic and electric fields of an electromagnetic wave are perpendicular to each other and to the direction of the wave.
Charged particles will be deflected by an electric field. The movement of any charged particle through an electric field will cause that charged particle to be attracted by one pole of the field and repelled by the other. That leaves uncharged particulate radiation, like a neutron, and electromagnetic radiation that will not be deflected by an electric field. The electromagnetic radiation will include X-rays and gamma rays.
Electromagnetic radiation a kind of radiation that includes visible light, radio waves, gamma rays, and X-rays. The electric and magnetic fields vary simultaneously in this type of radiation.
