X-rays
... X-rays were discovered by Wilhelm Konrad Rontgen in 1895 while he was experimenting with cathode tubes. Rontgen found out that x-ray was attenuated in a different way by various kinds of materials and that it could, like light, be captured on a photographic plate . This opened up the way for i ...
