X-Rays a brief

X-Rays

X Rays have a partiular wavelength and energy value.
the ability of the radiation to penetrate material and being absorbed is dependent on material type and energy of the radiation.

Half value layer (HVL) - level of radiation at which radiation intensity becomes one half of that at the surface. which is dependent on voltage and filteration.

Xrays and / or gamma rays which have higher kilovoltage have shorter wavelength and higher penetrating powers..
