Gamma waves have a very high frequency Gamma waves have a very high frequency. Gamma radiation cannot be seen or felt. It mostly passes through skin and soft tissue, but some of it is absorbed by cells which could lead to them being damaged or killed. An electromagnetic wave can travel through a vacuum, this means a Gamma Wave can!

A Gamma wave is an example of transverse wave. Gamma rays are emitted from the nucleus of some unstable atoms. Gamma Waves cannot be captures or reflected by mirrors, Gamma waves are packed with a lot of Crystal blocks. While they pass through they hit electrons in the crystal, this is called Compton scattering where a gamma ray collides with an electron and loses energy. A Gamma wave is an example of transverse wave. These waves are generated by radioactive atoms and in nuclear explosions. Gamma-rays can kill living cells, kill cancerous cells but cause them too!
