\n\u03b3-ray consists of electromagnetic waves. Gamma rays are a form of electromagnetic radiation with the shortest wavelengths and highest frequencies, and therefore highest photon energies. They are part of the electromagnetic spectrum, like visible light or X-rays, but with much higher energy.
\n<\/section>\n
\nUnlike alpha and beta radiation which consist of particles, gamma radiation consists of energy packets (photons) and is an electromagnetic wave.
\n<\/section>\n
\nGamma rays are typically produced by the decay of atomic nuclei (radioactive decay) or other high-energy processes like electron-positron annihilation. Mesons, neutrinos, and Higgs bosons are types of elementary particles, not constituents of gamma radiation.
