After that the industry will have to move on to nonoptical techniques, such as electron beams or even X rays, which have wavelengths less than a nanometer, one thousandth of a micron.

Progress: Just weeks after our story appeared, the USDA gave the go- ahead to the meat industry to use irradiation, which destroys bacteria by showering meat with electrons, gamma rays or x rays.
Since every isotope that spews gamma or X rays or charged particles does so in a unique way--an atomic fingerprint, of sorts--the color and intensity of the flash tells the detector which isotope is present and in what quantity.
When we talk about telescopes, we're usually referring to devices that "see" the visual spectrum of light, but astronomers also build telescopes that gather radiation like radio waves and X rays in order to peer deep into outer space.
It would necessarily be beamed energy of gamma-rays, x-rays, and cosmic rays resulting either from the merger of two neutron stars.
