Can gamma rays be stopped and how?

It seems that any matter will stop part of the gamma rays; to stop most of the gamma rays from passing, you would need a fairly thick layer of matter. The thickness required to block half of the gamma rays depends on the energy of the gamma rays. Just about any matter will do. For more details, check the Wikipedia article "Gamma ray", section "Shielding".


What energy contains no matter?

Gamma rays


What kind of gamma ray can penetrate solids?

Gamma rays are gamma rays are gamma rays.


How can gamma rays cause changes deep inside matter?

Gamma rays have high energy and penetrate deeply into matter, interacting with the nuclei of atoms. This can cause ionization, where electrons are knocked off atoms, leading to chemical changes and potentially damaging cellular structures. The energy of gamma rays can also break chemical bonds and create new molecules, disrupting normal biological processes.


What reflects gamma rays?

Gamma rays are high-energy electromagnetic waves that are usually reflected or absorbed by dense materials such as lead, concrete, or thick layers of water. In some cases, gamma rays can also be scattered by interaction with electrons in matter.


What kind of waves travel through matter?

Sound waves and gamma rays.


What are the electromagnetic waves with the shortest wavelengths and the highest frequency called?

Gamma Rays


What is the temperature of a gamma ray?

Gamma rays do not have a temperature because they are forms of energy, not matter. Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of particles in a substance, but gamma rays are massless packets of energy with no inherent temperature.


Are there problems with gamma rays?

What is x rays and gamma rays?

Cathode rays generate x-rays and gamma rays are electromagnetic radiation. Gamma rays have very high penetration power.


Which has a higher frequency gamma rays or xrays?

Gamma rays have a higher frequency than X-rays. Gamma rays are the most energetic form of electromagnetic radiation in the electromagnetic spectrum, whereas X-rays have a lower frequency than gamma rays.
