Electromagnetic (EM) radiation, also called light even though it is not
always visible, is a self-propagating wave in space with electric and
magnetic components. These components oscillate at right angles to each
other and to the direction of propagation, and are in phase with each
other. Electromagnetic radiation is classified into types according to the
frequency of the wave: these types include, in order of increasing
frequency, radio waves, microwaves, terahertz radiation, infrared
radiation, visible light, ultraviolet radiation, X-rays and gamma rays.
EM radiation carries energy and momentum, which may be imparted when it
interacts with matter.
Physics
Theory Electromagnetic waves were first postulated by James Clerk
Maxwell and subsequently confirmed by Heinrich Hertz. Maxwell derived a
wave form of the electric and magnetic equations, revealing the wave-like
nature of electric a
