▲ 115 ▼ TIL the difference between Chekhov radiation and Cherenkov radiation (aussie.zone) submitted 1 month ago by 18107@aussie.zone to c/dadjokes@lemmy.world 3 comments fedilink hide all child comments Cherenkov radiation is when a charged particle passes through a medium faster than the speed of light in that medium. Chekhov radiation is when radiation is discovered in act one, and kills someone by act three.
