1. x-radiation

   An X-ray, or, much less commonly, X-radiation, is a penetrating form of high-energy electromagnetic radiation. Most X-rays have a wavelength ranging from 10 picometers to 10 nanometers, corresponding to frequencies in the range 30 petahertz to 30 exahertz (3×1016 Hz to 3×1019 Hz) and energies in the range 145 eV to 124 keV. X-ray wavelengths are shorter than those of UV rays and typically longer than those of gamma rays. In many languages, X-radiation is referred to as Röntgen radiation, after the German scientist Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen, who discovered it on November 8, 1895. He named it X-radiation to signify an unknown type of radiation. Spellings of X-ray(s) in English include the variants x-ray(s), xray(s), and X ray(s). The most familiar use of X-rays is checking for fractures (broken bones), but X-rays are also used in other ways. For example, chest X-rays can spot pneumonia. Mammograms use X-rays to look for breast cancer.

1. x-radiation

   X-radiation, also known as X-rays, is a form of electromagnetic radiation that has a specific range in the electromagnetic spectrum, with wavelengths ranging from about 10 picometers to 10 nanometers. X-rays have a higher energy level than ultraviolet rays but less than gamma rays. They are commonly used in various fields such as medicine for diagnostic imaging, as well as in industries like material testing and aerospace due to their ability to penetrate matter and produce images of inner structures. X-radiation is also capable of ionizing gases, causing damage to living cells and potentially leading to cancer.

   A great example of that would be the Fukushima disaster-- where there was radiation. It was extremely dangerous for humans to go in. And what would have been really great is if we could have sent robots in to do something as simple as turn a valve.
