01
Overview
Gamma ray emission is the release of high-energy photons from an atomic nucleus as it transitions from an excited state to a lower energy state. This process typically follows alpha or beta decay and does not change the atomic number or mass number of the nucleus. Gamma rays are a form of electromagnetic radiation with high penetration power, posing a significant radiation hazard. While not directly a therapeutic target, gamma ray emission is utilized in medical imaging and cancer therapy.
