they can, but with much lower efficency than beta radiation as many of the high energetic gamma rays "fly through" the imaging plate without interaction

Can gamma rays reach the ground from space?

Gamma rays from space are absorbed by the Earth's atmosphere. However, gamma rays can still be detected on the ground as it is naturally emitted by radioactive decay occurring in rocks.


How can gamma rays detect?

Gamma rays can be detected using instruments like Geiger-Muller counters or scintillation detectors that can measure the energy and intensity of the gamma radiation. When gamma rays interact with these detectors, they produce electrical signals that can be amplified and analyzed to determine the presence and characteristics of the gamma rays.
