Serious limitations of the strong equivalence principle [PDF]
International Journal of Modern Physics A Vol. 32 (2017) 1750068, 2016 It is well known that an accelerated charged particle radiates away energy. However, whether an accelerated neutral composite particle radiates away energy is unclear. We study decoherent Larmor radiation from an accelerated neutral composite object. We find that the neutral object's long wavelength radiation is highly suppressed because radiation from

THE PENETRATING RADIATION [PDF]
Science, 1907 The announcement of the discovery of the penetrating radiation was made simultaneously by Rutherford and Cooke and McClennan and Burton in 1902. Investigations on radioactive substances had shown that some of these emit a very penetrating radiation, the γ radiation, resembling hard X‐rays.
