- Infrared light [r]: In physics and engineering, a non-visible portion of the electromagnetic spectrum ranging from wavelengths of 750 nm to 1 mm, between the darkest visible red and the shortest submillimeter wave radar [e]
- Visible light [r]: Electromagnetic radiation of a wavelength that is detectable by the human eye. [e]
- Ultraviolet [r]: The part of the electromagnetic spectrum between the visible light and X-ray regions [e]
- X-ray [r]: An ionizing type of electromagnetic radiation whose absorption or diffraction often used for structural investigations of matter. [e]
- Conduction [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Convection [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Antenna [r]: Please do not use this term in your topic list, because there is no single article for it. Please substitute a more precise term. See Antenna (disambiguation) for a list of available, more precise, topics. Please add a new usage if needed.
- Acute radiation syndrome [r]: Disease or death caused by whole-body irradiation, over a short period of time, with a significant quantity of penetrating radiation [e]
- Acoustic energy [r]: Energy propagated as pressure waves, through elastic media such as air or water. Hearing is the detection of acoustic energy within the frequency range of the animal detecting the energy [e]
- Electronic warfare [r]: A subset of information operations that deals with the use of electromagnetic or kinetic means to degrade an enemy's military electronics systems, to be able to operate one's own electronics in the face of enemy attacks, and to evade those attacks through protection or deception [e]
- Nuclear weapon [r]: an extremely dangerous bomb based atomic fission (the "atom bomb" or A-bomb) or fusion (the "hydrogen" or H-bomb); a powerful conventional bomb is also needed to trigger the atomic reaction. [e]
- Radar [r]: (acronym for "radio detection and ranging") A technique used for detecting and tracking targets, navigation, imagery, and special applications. [e]
- Radio [r]: Transmission and reception of information, which can be voice, data or imagery over electromagnetic radiation in free space (i.e., wireless). The information is modulated onto a carrier wave [e]
