The electromagnetic spectrum consists of all possible frequencies of electromagnetic waves, which are classified by their frequency and wavelength and common uses. Radio waves have the longest wavelength and are used to transmit general information, while microwaves are used in microwave ovens to heat food by moving hydrogen atoms. The experiment detected microwave wavelengths by observing melted chocolate spots. Infrared radiation is emitted by thermal agitation and detected by special cameras, while ultraviolet light from the sun is responsible for many tumors. X-rays are used to see hidden objects and gamma rays have the shortest wavelengths; one hypothesis is that dark matter consists of axion particles that transform between gamma rays and photons during supernova explosions.

Magnetic Resonance Force Microscopy (MRFM) is a technique that borrows from Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Atomic Force Microscopy to image biological structures at an atomic level resolution. MRFM uses a magnetic field and laser focused on a cantilever to detect minute interactions between a specimen placed on the cantilever and the magnetic field as the cantilever passes over it. This causes the cantilever to vibrate, and an image is created based on the vibration. MRFM allows for subsurface imaging of structures with atomic detail.

As a wave, electromagnetic radiation is characterized by its frequency, wavelength, and amplitude. Higher frequency radiation like gamma rays and X-rays have shorter wavelengths and higher energies, allowing them to penetrate deeper into materials. Exposure to high energy radiation can be dangerous by breaking molecular bonds through ionization. Electromagnetic radiation can also be described by photon particles, where the energy of each photon is determined by Planck's constant and the radiation's frequency or wavelength.

Lecture 2 Properties of em waves
This document discusses the properties of electromagnetic waves. It describes how electromagnetic waves are produced by oscillating electric and magnetic fields and form a spectrum from gamma rays to radio waves. The key properties of all electromagnetic waves are that they are transverse waves that can travel through empty space at the speed of light, carry energy, and have frequencies and wavelengths that are inversely related. Sound waves are longitudinal rather than electromagnetic. Different colors of visible light have different amounts of energy.
Electromagnetic radiation
Electromagnetic radiation (EMR) is a form of energy that can transfer through empty space and consists of oscillating electric and magnetic fields perpendicular to each other and the direction of propagation. EMR travels at the speed of light and can be described using both wave and particle models. The wave model conceives EMR as waves characterized by amplitude, wavelength, frequency, and speed of light. Shorter wavelengths correspond to higher frequencies and more energy. EMR interacts with matter by reflecting, absorbing, or transmitting depending on the material. The particle model views EMR as discrete packets of energy called photons whose energy is determined by the photon's frequency and Planck's constant.

Light and the Electromagnetic Spectrum
Light is a form of electromagnetic radiation that travels in waves made up of electric and magnetic fields. The electromagnetic spectrum includes both visible light and invisible forms of energy across a range of wavelengths.

Examples are given of how different electromagnetic waves are used such as radio waves for communication, microwaves for cooking, infrared for night vision, visible light for sight, ultraviolet for sterilization, x-rays for medical imaging, and gamma rays for radiation therapy.

This document provides an overview of the electromagnetic spectrum. It describes how electromagnetic waves transport energy and span frequencies from radio to gamma rays. Only a small portion of the spectrum is visible to the human eye. The document discusses different types of electromagnetic waves, including radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, X-rays, and gamma rays. It also covers topics like atmospheric windows, wave behaviors such as reflection and absorption, and how NASA instruments visualize data across the electromagnetic spectrum through false color images.
Microwave and infrared spectroscopy of polyatomic molecules
Microwave and infrared spectroscopy can be used to study the rotational and vibrational states of polyatomic molecules. Microwave spectroscopy specifically probes the rotational transitions of molecules with a permanent dipole moment, in the microwave frequency range of 300MHz-300GHz. Infrared spectroscopy analyzes the vibrational transitions of molecules when exposed to infrared radiation, divided into stretching and bending vibrations. Both techniques provide information on molecular structure through analysis of absorption spectra.

The document discusses the origins and development of quantum mechanics in the early 1900s. It describes how Max Planck first proposed quanta to explain blackbody radiation, and how Albert Einstein later applied this idea to explain the photoelectric effect. The document also discusses how the work of De Broglie, Schrodinger, and others led to the development of quantum theory and the idea that particles have both wave-like and particle-like properties. It explores how these developments challenged classical physics and had impacts beyond science, influencing fields like philosophy and art.
Teorema di gauss per il magnetismo
This document discusses Gauss's theorem for magnetism. It begins by explaining the concepts of electric field flux and Gauss's theorem for the electric field, how electric field flux is calculated, and how Gauss's theorem for the electric field is proven. It then discusses the properties of magnetic fields, including that magnetic field lines always form closed loops. It states that Gauss's theorem for magnetism is that the magnetic flux through any closed surface is always equal to zero, since the entering and exiting magnetic field lines through the surface cancel out. The document provides formulas for calculating magnetic field flux through both closed and open surfaces.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

E.m. spectrum
- 1. The electromagnetic spectrum is the set of all the possible frequencies of an electromagnetic wave. So e.m. waves are classified by their frequency and wavelength and by their typical use. Radio waves have the shortest wavelength and they’re used to transmit information in general. Then we have microwaves which are used in microwave ovens to move hydrogen atoms to heat food. We’ve done an experiment about microwaves ovens to detect the wavelength by observing melted spots on a piece of chocolate. The infrared radiation is emitted by thermal agitation of bodies and it is visible by special cameras. It is also used for remote controllers. The visible light is the portion of the e.m. spectrum that we can see. Ultraviolet light is close to the visible light and it absorbed by some materials which emit another e.m. wave visible to us. Ultraviolet rays from the sun are responsible of many types of tumors. x-rays are used in many fields to see hidden objects with special machines. Gamma rays have the shortest wavelength of the spectrum. We’ve done a group research about gamma rays and the fermi telescope. One hypothesis about dark matter is that it consist in hypothetical particles called axions which are able to transform in photons when influenced by a magnetic field. During the explosion of a supernova gamma rays’ photons are transformed in axions, then they escape quickly the explosion and return to gamma rays form. The Large Area Telescope is able to detect gamma rays but the problem is knowing when and where to look for supernova explosions. So new studies are focused on tracking and mapping supernova explosions with common telescopes to predict when they’re going to happen in the future.
