Sentences with phrase «wave radiation emitted»

Instead of relying on light waves emitted by electrons, it would use radiation emitted when the nucleus is excited to a high energy state, and then drops into a lower energy state.

This was the first time electromagnetic radiation — light, gamma rays and radio waves — was detected from the same object that emitted gravitational waves.

Its power requirements are relatively low because the radiation emitted by all of the lasers is «phase locked,» meaning that the troughs and crests of its waves are perfectly aligned.

The telescope will also be able to register the radio waves emitted by water masers, clouds of water molecules that emit microwave radiation, in the discs of galaxies.

As the plane wave travels along, the pattern oscillates rapidly, causing it to emit ultraviolet radiation that the researchers observe.

radiation Energy, emitted by a source, that travels through space in waves or as moving subatomic particles.

The pulsar's rotation is thought to slow because the neutron star's powerful magnetic field acts as a giant dynamo, emitting light, radio waves and other electromagnetic radiation as the star rotates.

Various molecules in the gas emit characteristic radiation as radio waves under characteristic conditions (temperature, density, chemical compositions).

The astronomers expect material falling onto a black hole to emit radio waves, among other types of radiation.

Because the wavelength of emitted EM radiation varies with the temperature of the source, it does so in the form of longer - wave IR than that received from the Sun — the Earth's surface is significantly cooler than that of the Sun.

The sun, which is quite hot (about 5800K), emits most of its energy at between 0.2 microns and 4 microns (solar or short wave radiation, or plain sunlight), while the Earth's surface emits the most energy at wavelengths between 5 and 50 microns (the so - called thermal Infrared region of the spectrum).

The increased water vapour blocks long wave radiation which causes an increase in temperature of tropical troposphere at around 8K and an increase in long wave radiation, a portion of which is emitted back down to the surface of the planet to amplify the CO2 forcing.

July 17, 2013 at 1:39 pm The lapse rate feedback is only a negative feedback (in the general circulation model) if the long wave radiation that is released when the water vapour condenses is emitted to space rather than trapped by increased water vapour.

You will find that the place with the greater temperature range emits more long wave radiation even the the two average temperatures are the same.

All hot objects emit electromagnetic radiation, which includes radio waves, visible light, and x - rays, as well as ultraviolet and infrared radiation.

The amount of CO2 gas warming observed is theoretically logarithmically proportional to the increase in atmospheric CO2 times the amount of long wave radiation that it emitted to space prior to the increase.

Now we know that as the earth is a sphere the tropical region of the planet receives the most amount of short wave radiation and hence also emits the most amount long wave radiation.

The Sun's radiation transports, or emits, short - wave electro - magnetic radiation away and thus avoids «a big bang» --(There may also be back radiation from planets etc. provided the radiative forces are strong enough to reach the Sun) On a smaller scale the same «Energy Transport System» or radiative principles work here on Earth too.

From this layman's perspective you are discussing NET radiative heat transfer between non-gaseous objects thus infering wide band land wave radiation is emitted / absorbed by the surface of each object.

The heated gas molecules would bump into other air molecules and warm them, and like any material above absolute zero, the Atmosphere would emit radiation at a variety of long - wave wavelengths in random directions, some of which would be absorbed by the surface of the planet, warming it further.

-- Yes, it may be correct in so far as they can say that; «around 10 % of the wavebands emitted by IR radiation are made up of wave - lengths that can not be absorbed by «Greenhouse Gases» (GHGs), but that can not possibly mean that 0.04 %, in the case of CO2 concentration but certainly less than 10 % of the Atmosphere as a total has got what must be a «supernatural» ability to stop LWR.
