Decided to allocate:
- 1) low-frequency radiation,
- 2) radiation,
- 3) infrared rays,
- 4) visible light,
- 5) ultraviolet rays,
- 6) x-rays
- 7) γ- radiation.
Thermal radiation radiation, when the loss of atoms the radiation energy of the light is compensated by the thermal motion of atoms ( molecules ) radiant body. ( the radiation of the Sun).
Electroluminescence - electric discharge in gases. Northern lights. Neon advertising.
Cathodoluminescence - the illumination of solid bodies , caused by bombardment by electrons. The screens of cathode ray tubes televisions.
Chemiluminescence - in the course of some chemical reactions, coming with the release of energy, part of this energy turns into light energy.
Photoluminescence - the illumination of bodies falling on them of radiation. (fluorescent lights, the fluorescein – dye)
Infrared radiation – (heat) electromagnetic waves which cause heat.
Ultraviolet radiation – electromagnetic waves with a wavelength of less, than that of violet light.
X-rays radiation, which occurs upon impact of fast electrons on a metallic anode.
