can we convert electricity to gamma radiation?

Question

i just want to know if there is an effective n efficient method of converting electricity to gamma radiation
i know that annihilation of matter with anti-matter will fetch us gamma rays.. but is there any other means to do it that is more feasible.

Answer 1

No - by definition of gamma radiation. Gamma rays used to refer to photons with higher energy than than X-rays photon, but this distinction was dropped decades ago.



The difference between gamma rays and X-rays is now taken to be the method of production.



Gamma radiation consists of high energy photons produced by nuclear changes or particle reactions (e.g. matter-antimattter annihilation). High energy photons NOT produced this way are referred to as X-rays. X-ray photons can be produced by decelerating charges or by inner-orbit electronic transitions in heavier elements.



Gamma photons typically have higher energies than X-ray photons but this not always true.



So your question should be "can we convert electricity to high energy photons" and the answer is of course yes. If you break a bone, the X-rays used to take the photograph are produced from electrical energy, and there are many other electrically powered systems for generating vert high energy X-rays (the LHC does it all the time!).

Answer 2

i think of we are in a position to do it if we've 2 metals a million with low density and a million with severe density yet in the midsection we decide for something semi-risky to grant us the potential output we decide for and that i do no longer mean something like nuclear potential source (radiation) like uranium and so on.the issue is warmth it rather is out putted via the tactics. we are in a position to apply the warmth for greater potential however the issue is gadget over heating and function unfastened electron flying everywhere. So i replaced into questioning liquid cooling like nitrogen or hydrogen yet hydrogen is bit to risky. I rather have this thought for an extremely long term now yet i had no person to help me understand what replaced into in my innovations.

Answer 3

not currently possible.
