What type of wave does the compton gamma ray detect?
Like the name suggest, the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory detects gamma rays.
Is gamma ray a visible light?
No, gamma rays are not visible to the human eye.
Do gamma rays penetrate more than x rays?
Gamma rays have more energy than visible light rays. Visible light has a longer wavelength. Gamma rays have a shorter wavelength and higher frequency, and have the most energy of all electromagnetic radiation.
How often do gamma ray bursts explode?
Gammy ray bursts occur about once per day.
Does the sun give off gamma rays?
Yes - as with all other wavelengths on the em spectrum - however, not to a high intensity. You'd be surprised the moon is actually brighter than the sun when viewed in 'gamma ray vision'.
How much hotter is a gamma ray burst than the sun?

Is there a ray with shorter wavelength than the gamma ray?
Cosmic rays have shorter wavelength than gamma rays
Why is a gamma-ray photon more energetic than an X-ray photon?
Gamma ray photons have a higher frequency (and therefore carry more energy) than X-ray photons.
Do gamma rays have a higher frequency than x rays?
Generally speaking, it is gamma rays that have a higher frequency (and energy) than X-rays. The upper end of the X-ray spectrum and the lower end of the gamma ray spectrum enjoy a bit of overlap, but the X-ray does not have a higher frequency than the gamma ray.
What is the wavelength of gamma ray?
The wavelength of a gamma-ray is 10-11 metres
What electromagnetic wave has more energy than an x-ray?
A gamma ray has more energy than an X-ray.
Can X rays have higher energies than gamma rays?
Gamma rays have energies higher than that of X-rays. It is true that there is some overlap of the upper end of the X-ray spectrum and the lower end of the gamma ray spectrum, but the X-ray spectrum falls below that of the gamma ray spectrum. For these reasons, if someone asks if X-rays can have higher energies than gamma rays, the answer would be in the negative.
Which ray is the strongest?
Gamma Ray
Which form of radiation form the sun has the shortest?
The form of radiation from the sun that has the shortest wave length is known as a gamma ray. The next type of ray that is longer than a gamma ray is an x-ray.
How is a radio wave different than a gamma wave?
Radiowave is nonionizing while gamma ray is ionizing.
Is a gamma-ray burst more powerful than a pulsar?
A gamma ray burster emits an amount of gamma ray energy in one pulse roughly equal all EM radiation energy of a galaxy in a year. So yes.
Why do we use gamma ray machine?
We use a gamma ray machine to find out where the gamma rays are and where they are pointed to. We also use these machines to study a gamma ray.
