nothing—not even particles and electromagnetic radiation such as light—can escape from inside it. Objects whose gravitational fields are too strong for...

threatened, but the difference gets lost. The danger from low levels of radiation is quite low, as expressed as morbidity statistics or probabilities, but...

electrical circuits, spectroscopy, and the emission of black-body radiation by heated objects. Look here, I have succeeded at last in fetching some gold from...

potential effects on natural populations. We know that exposure to acute radiation is terrible, but actually low levels are nowhere near as bad as we think...

would have meant that all energy would eventually transfer from matter to radiation. ...This approach was opened to me by maintaining the two laws of thermodynamics...

(27 September 1905) : "If a body gives off the energy L in the form of radiation, its mass diminishes by L/c²." You will soon be able to tax it. Michael...

instrument that aids in the observation of remote objects by collecting electromagnetic radiation (such as visible light). The first known practical...

of matter and radiation, the matter consisting of atoms and the radiation of waves. Planck's theory called for an atomicity of radiation similar to that...

electromagnetic radiation as a faint, very cold relic from the very early Big Bang. The CMB is also known as the cosmic microwave background radiation (CMBR) or...
