So when they're coated on the inside of these bottles, they're actually blocking some of the UV radiation and diminishing the efficiency of the process.
A metamaterial is an artificial material, which manipulates, in this case, electromagnetic radiation, in a way that you couldn't otherwise.
If you can get these electrons up to a higher energy, so about 1,000 times higher than this tube, the X-rays that those produce can actually deliver enough ionizing radiation to kill human cells.
More than six thousand light years from the surface of the earth, a rapidly spinning neutron star called the Black Widow pulsar blasts its companion brown dwarf star with radiation as the two orbit each other every 9 hours.
And before that year was finished, doctors sat my husband and I down and let us know that his tumor had returned despite the most aggressive chemotherapy and radiation that they could offer him.
This is a light called synchrotron radiation, and it's formed from electrons spiraling around cosmic magnetic fields.
It's alight with synchrotron radiation, and thousands of dots are in the sky.
We know that there must be a lot of high-energy electrons in the plane to produce the synchrotron radiation that we see, and we think they're produced by supernova remnants, but there don't seem to be enough.
Imaging methods, while useful in some populations, expose patients to harmful radiation.
So what we need is a method that is noninvasive, that is light in infrastructure, that is highly specific, that also does not have false positives, does not use any radiation and is applicable to large populations.
Mars is a very cold planet, flooded with high levels of UV radiation and extremely dry.
We even have some preliminary evidences that these microorganisms may still be active in the desiccated state, like walking mummies all around us, and that they may be using UV radiation as a source of energy.
It filters out more than 90 percent of the harmful UV radiation coming from the sun.
Similar to protecting yourself from tornadoes or hurricanes, getting and staying inside a sturdy building would offer protection from the explosion’s shockwave, heat, and radiation.
These sand-sized particles emit ionizing radiation, capable of separating electrons from molecules and atoms.
Exposure to massive amounts of this radiation can result in cell damage, radiation burns, radiation sickness, cancer, and even death.
Radiation is reduced as it travels through space and mass.
So while a broken window and sealed window both have the same minimal effect on radiation, thick layers of steel, concrete, and packed earth can offer serious protection.
And since fallout gives off half of its energy in the first hour and 80% in the first day, staying inside for 24 hours could dramatically improve the odds of avoiding the most serious effects of radiation.

If you don't get out of there, you're going to be exposed to lethal radiation in very short order.
The radiation that the tracer emits is what makes this possible.
These photons will then impact an array of paired radiation detectors in the scanner walls.
But with all this talk of radiation and nuclear reactions inside the body, are these scans safe?
Even though no amount of ionizing radiation is completely safe, the amount of radiation the body receives during a PET scan is actually quite low.
One scan is comparable to what you’re exposed to over two or three years from natural radioactive sources, like radon gas; or the amount a pilot would rack up from cosmic radiation after 20 to 30 transatlantic flights.
It's blasting out radiation.
We found that after a year, none of the experimental group patients who made these lifestyle changes needed treatment, while six of the control group patients needed surgery or radiation.
