Each bullet becomes an intense concentration of electromagnetic energy that travels along a curved trajectory and leaves a bent plasma channel behind.
Although the classification scheme is generally accurate, there is often some overlap between neighboring types of electromagnetic energy.
FORTE can detect the burst of electromagnetic energy from a nuclear blast but its scientific forte has proven to be detecting lightning: the spacecraft's sensitive instruments also pick up the brief radio impulses, lasting less than a thousandth of a second, from lightning flashes.
Some scientists believe that an electrical apocalypse could really occur, in the event of an electromagnetic pulse attack, described in one 2008 white paper as «a high - intensity burst of electromagnetic energy caused by the rapid acceleration of charged particles.»
There is such an intense concentration of electromagnetic energy in the strong curving peak of the pulse that it ionises the air as it travels, leaving a plasma arc in its wake.
Laurent Grasso (Paris, France) has been long fascinated with the visual possibilities related to the science of electromagnetic energy, radio waves, and naturally occurring phenomena.
I built a work that exploits the phenomenon of sonoluminescence, in which extremely high pressure sound waves in liquids create tiny sources of electromagnetic energy.
Microwave radiometry data are used to construct brightness temperatures: an indication of the intensity of electromagnetic energy at a particular wavelength that filters up through the atmosphere and reaches the satellite's sensor.
In particular, while studying a trimer system consisting of three discrete metallic nanodisks of about 145 nanometers in diameter and 60 nanometers thick, the team found evidence for the presence of near - field, subwavelength - sized optical vortices and the circulation of electromagnetic energy (see image).
This led to his discovery of the photon, a discrete packet of electromagnetic energy, and to the realization that such a packet must be both a wave and a particle.
«This zero - index metamaterial offers a solution for the confinement of electromagnetic energy in different waveguide configurations because its high internal phase velocity produces full transmission, regardless of how the material is configured.»
As matter and light fall into the superdense region, X-rays and other forms of electromagnetic energy get blasted into space.
On Nov. 11, 2014, a global network of telescopes picked up signals from 300 million light - years away that were created by a tidal disruption flare — an explosion of electromagnetic energy that occurs when a black hole rips apart a passing star.
In this sci - fi horror outing a terrorist turns into an unstoppable mass of electromagnetic energy after an attempted prison break goes horribly awry.
Students explore the simple mathematics behind light and other forms of electromagnetic energy including the properties of waves, wavelength, frequency, the Doppler shift, and the various ways that astronomers image the universe across the electromagnetic spectrum to learn more about the properties of matter and its movement.
In the course of that process heat energy is released around the planet and radiated out with the rest of the electromagnetic energy received from the sun.
Your explanation is incomplete — you ignore totally the massive amounts of electromagnetic energy entering into and out of the earth - system via Birkeland currents at the polar regions, and which are measured routinely in millions of amperes.
Some of them work (such as the Ember sniper rifle that shoots bursts of electromagnetic energy or the Ratchet & Clank - style Buzzkill, which shoots reams of bouncing sawblades at your foes) and some of them don't (such as the DropShot, which is meant to fire explosive drills from above, but proves too unwieldy to aim correctly in the heat of battle).
A quasar is an astronomical source of electromagnetic energy, including light, which shows a very high redshift.
Unlike baryonic matter, dark matter neither emits nor absorbs light or other forms of electromagnetic energy.
Solar flares are bursts of electromagnetic energy and particles that sometimes stream from the sun.
