The correct answer should be - X-rays.
X-rays are electromagnetic waves that have their wavelengths ranging from 0.01 - 10 nanometers and their energies lie in the range of 100 eV - 100 keV.
They have shorter wavelengths and so they have high energy. So, they are called as ionizing radiation and they are so strong that they can harm a living tissue.
X-Rays are used in spectroscopy - as the X-ray spectrometer for chemical analysis. It is also used in X-ray crystallography which helps in studying the lattice structure and the molecular structure of a crystal or a molecule. An X-ray photograph called the radiograph is used to study internal structures in medicine
