FACTOID # 127: Costa Rica leads the world in per capita exports of bananas, cassava, melons, and pineapples to the United States. Unsuprisingly, they’re also first in pesticide use.

Epsilon Radiation is tertiary radiation caused by secondary radiation. (an example of secondary radiation are delta rays). Epsilon rays are a form of particle radiation and are composed of electrons. It has been suggested that this article or section be merged with delta ray. ... Particle radiation is the radiation of energy by means of small fast-moving particles that have energy and mass. ... Properties The electron is a fundamental subatomic particle which carries a negative electric charge. ...

System for Converting Electromagnetic Radiation Energy to Electrical Energy (4328 words)
The beat frequency radiation from the antenna is transmitted to a converter via a conductor or waveguide and converted to electrical energy having a desired voltage and waveform.
The antenna feeds the radiation energy to an electrical conductor (in the case of a conventional dipole or comparable type of antenna) or to a waveguide (in the case of a rf cavity structure).
Thus, the radiation 24 received by the antenna 22 is fed via an electrical conductor 26 to a means for converting the beat frequency radiation 24 to electrical energy.
Radiation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (310 words)
Cherenkov radiation — Emission of radiation by a particle moving through an insulating medium faster than the speed of light in that medium.
Thermal radiation — Process by which a hot object emits electromagnetic radiation; it is one of the three methods of heat flow.
Radiant energy is radiation emitted by a source into the surrounding environment.
