This was true even in areas with high levels of both radon gas and gamma radiation.
Scientists think that a blast of Gamma radiation might have hit our planet in the halcyon days of the year 775.

Day takes the idea of returning to past experiments and exposes them to gamma radiation, speeding up the evolution process across 14 tracks.
Its Burst Alert Telescope is set up to catch the intense but fleeting flash of very high-energy gamma radiation that initially signals a GRB event.
It can guide a drone to the site of a nuclear explosion by following the plume of gamma radiation where no onboard pilot could safely venture.
In this study, the team tried to change these proteins and reduce the allergic properties of the nuts by subjecting them to gamma radiation and thermal processing.
Four-stranded DNA, a database of alien planets, a new super-chemical to kill hospital bugs and a byzantine gamma-radiation blast.

Compelling independent corroboration would come from a spacecraft that can see the burst of gamma-ray radiation expected to accompany the cataclysmic events that produce gravitational waves.
X-rays and gamma rays that Eros gives off in response to bombardment by solar and cosmic radiation.
And that depends on being able to see the lower-energy radiation, in order to pinpoint what it was that exploded (gamma rays are impossible to focus, so the location of a burst is known only approximately).
The team, at the Gray Institute for Radiation Oncology and Biology at Oxford University, were looking for a protein, called gamma-H2AX, which is produced in response to damaged DNA. This tends to be one of the first steps on the road to a cell becoming cancerous.
