Gamma rays are electromagnetic radiation at the short-wavelength, or high-frequency, end of the electromagnetic(EM) spectrum, which ranges from gamma rays(short) to radio(long). The study and analysis of gamma-ray spectra for scientific and technical use is called gamma spectroscopy, and gamma-ray spectrometers are the instruments which observe and collect such data. Because the energy of each photon of EM radiation is proportional to its frequency, gamma rays have sufficient energy that they are typically observed by counting individual photons. 2, record 9, English, - gamma%2Dray%20spectrometer

An incident gamma ray reacts with an electron in an atomic orbit. The gamma photon gives all of its energy to the orbiting electron and ceases to exist. The electron is ejected from the atom and behaves like a beta particle. The ejected electron is called a photoelectron. 1, record 31, English, - photoelectron

L'instrument IBIS à bord d'INTEGRAL [est] chargé de fournir des images précises du ciel dans un domaine d'énergie allant de 20 keV à 10 MeV. [Cet instrument] est l'héritier direct du télescope SIGMA. Sa conception est en effet très semblable, alliant un masque codé à un ensemble détecteur à base de caméras gamma, le tout étant protégé des rayonnements parasites par des blindages actifs et passifs. L'originalité d'IBIS (Imager on Board the Integral Satellite) réside surtout dans les performances de l'ensemble détecteur qui devrait permettre d'atteindre une sensibilité dix fois meilleure que celle de SIGMA. Pour couvrir un domaine d'énergie de près de 3 ordres de grandeur, il a fallu recourir à l'utilisation de deux caméras. La première, ISGRI (Integral Soft Gamma-Ray Imager), fonctionne à basse énergie (20 keV - 1 MeV). La seconde, PICsIT (PIxellated CsI Telescope), mesure les photons de plus haute énergie (150 keV - 10 MeV). 2, record 37, French, - instrument%20IBIS

The method by which incident radiation interacts with the medium to cause ionization may be direct or indirect. Electromagnetic radiations (X rays and gamma photons) are indirectly ionizing; that is, they give up their energy in various interactions with cellular molecules, and the energy is then utilized to produce a fast-moving charged particle such as an electron. It is the electron that then secondarily may react with a target molecule. Charged particles, in contrast, strike the tissue or medium and directly react with target molecules, such as oxygen or water. These particulate radiations are directly ionizing radiations. 1, record 46, English, - gamma%20photon
