FYI: Re your comment about ionizing radiation being "RF that changes
matter", it is electromagnetic energy but it is not RF. The lowest energy
form of ionizing radiation is Ultraviolet radiation followed by x-rays and
gamma rays on the electromagnetic spectrum. Of course there are also the
particle forms of ionizing radiation such as Alpha radiation (essentially a
Helium nucleus) and Beta radiation (essentially an electron emitted from the
nucleus when a neutron changes to a proton, or a positron emitted from the
nucleus when the opposite occurs).
