A transverse wave
Ultraviolet this is the real answer.
Infrared
it is the greenhouse gases, and a grennhouse gases is. a greenhouse gas have the ability to pick up and send out ( a part of ) the long wave heat radiation while allowing the major part of the shot wave to pass. log wave is this context means radiation having a wavelength of 3 to 100 micrometers ( microns) short wave in this context means radiation having a wavelength of approx. Form 290 ti 3000 m ( nanometers)
Visible light has the spectrum VIBGYOR. Violet is at one extreme having highest frequency and red is at the other end having least frequency. Less frequency means having longest wavelength, since wavelength and frequency are inversely related. As we go beyond violet then it is named as ultraviolet. Same way as we go beyond red, then it known as infra red. So its wavelength has to be greater than that of red. Hence longer wavelength for IR radiations. IR is what we call 'thermal' radiation, in other words, 'heat'.
There are an infinite number of wavelengths absorbed by the atmosphere. There are an infinite number of wavelengths that aren't absorbed by the atmosphere. Electromagnetic radiations having wavelength between range of 5-8micrometer are absorbed by the atmosphere.
Longer than visiblie wavelength is Infrared. Shorther than visible wavelength is ultraviolet. Asking for answers here to the Guardian crossword is cheating. ;o)
monochromatic, coherent
Electromagnetic radiation emitted during radioactive decay and having an extremely short wavelength.
Visible light is a very small part of the electromagnetic spectrum. It is characterised by having a wavelength between 4x10-7m and 7x10-7m. The energy carried by a photon is Planck's constant divided by its wavelength.
The type of electromagnetic radiation includes the wavelength of 10 up to the -7 m is visible light. The wavelike properties of electrons are useful in determining the velocity and position of a particle.
Frequency of electromagnetic radiation = (speed of light) / (wavelength) Speed of light in vacuum = 300,000,000 meters/sec (rounded) Frequency = (300,000,000 meters/sec) / (5 x 10-6 cm) = (3 x 108 m/s) / (5 x 10-8 m) = 0.6 x 1016 = 6 x 1015 Hz.
radio waves
Infrared radiation.
The EM spectrum is a chart of electromagnetic radiation, arranged by wave length. The chart may be arranged in ascending or descending order.Related Information:The charts could begin with radio waves, having the longest wavelength, and end with gamma rays, having the shortest wavelength or the order could be reversed.

Both X-rays and gamma rays are forms of electromagnetic radiation, so yes, the radiation is similar. It's the same type of radiation, in fact.In older sources you may see X-rays listed as having longer wavelengths (and lower energy) than gamma rays, but in modern usage the wavelengths of the two overlap to a degree. The general distinction is that electromagnetic radiation emitted by an atomic nucleus is a "gamma ray" and electromagnetic radiation emitted by an electron outside the nucleus is an "X-ray" even if the two have the same wavelength.

So far in the electromagnetic spectrum we have gamma radiations having the shortest wavelength. In case of de Broglie's waves the matter waves of massive objects such as an iron ball moving at a faster rate would have the shortest wavelength which could not be measured even. So we declare that only light particles such as electron, proton, neutron or alpha particle, deutron moving at higher speeds would act as a wave with shortest wavelength.
