text: Both x-rays and gamma rays are forms of high-frequency ionizing radiation, which means they have enough energy to remove an electron from (ionize) an atom or molecule.
text: In the wide energy range of 100 keV to 1 MeV, Compton scattering is the main absorption mechanism, in which an incident γ-photon loses enough energy to eject an electron in an atom of the irradiated matter, and the remainder of its energy is emitted as a new γ-photon with lower energy.
text: In internal conversion, excess energy in a nucleus is directly transferred to one of its own orbiting electrons, thereby ejecting the electron from the atom.
text: The kind of radiation discussed on this site is called ionizing radiation because it has enough energy to remove an electron from an atom, making that atom an ion.
text: Ionization can occur, when the charged particle have enough energy to remove an electron.
text: These rays, as well as some higher energy UV radiation , are forms of ionizing radiation , which means they have enough energy to remove an electron from (ionize) an atom.
text: The rays are a form of ionizing radiation, which means they have enough energy to remove electrons from atoms and molecules.
text: All of these types are examples of ionising radiation, radiation with sufficient energy to remove electrons from atoms (creating ions).
text: This type of radiation deposits energy in the materials through which it passes, but it does not have sufficient energy to break molecular bonds or remove electrons from atoms.
text: Consequently, when ionizing radiation passes through material, it deposits enough energy to break molecular bonds and displace (or remove) electrons from atoms.
text: Non-ionizing radiation does not have enough energy to remove electrons from an atom.
