Abstract
Summary:
Gamma rays, like radio waves, infrared waves, ultraviolet rays, and X-rays, are a type of electromagnetic waves. The beginning of the use of radiation dates back to the end of the 19th century, after the discovery of X-rays by Rothengen. The use of radiation is widely and successfully seen in medicine, industry, agriculture and research sectors. For example, neutrons and gamma rays are used in medicine to treat cancerous tumors, and X-rays are used in radiology. In the defense and military industry, gamma rays emitted from radioactive radium and cobalt with high power. They are used to find small holes and fractures of metal parts in the aircraft and missile industry They are also used to determine the type and amount of radioactive material in aerial monitoring of gamma rays during identification operations. Another application of rays in the field of radiation processing. Ultra-processing is used in order to process and modify materials, reduce harmful industrial waste and reprocess waste water, etc., which is introduced in more detail in the rest of this article. Therefore, in this article, radiation and its types are first explained, and then the different types of gamma radiation systems are introduced, as well as some radiation emitters in the world are discussed.
