Is "Effects of UV Rays' a good topic in research?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the viability of researching the effects of UV rays, noting that while the topic has been extensively studied, there may be specific areas that remain underexplored. Participants highlight that ultraviolet light consists of UVA and UVB wavelengths, each with distinct biological effects. The consensus suggests that a broader topic like "effects of UV radiation" may be too general and should be narrowed down for effective research. Suggestions include focusing on specific impacts or applications of UV radiation. Overall, refining the research question is essential for clarity and depth.

Is "Effects of UV Rays' a good topic in research?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
The effects of UV rays have been studied extensively. However, you might be able to find some specific area which has not been addressed. Good luck.
 
How about 'The different types of UV Rays according to its effects'?
 
I don't really think there's really any different types of UV rays. Ultraviolet light is itself, a sub-category of the electromagnetic spectrum so I wouldn't htink it had further sub-catagories.
 
I have read something that tells that natura sun ight is made up of two different wavelength of ultraviolet ight: UVA and UVB.
 
Yah maybe it does give off 2 bands of UV light but I am not sure how much differently they act. What was the article?
 
Since ultraviolet covers a fairly wide band of the em spectrum, rays of different frequencies will have different effects. UVA and UVB are defined specifically with respect to biological effects.
 
Such a research topic would be far too broad. Try to make it more specific as in 'the effects of UV radiation on ...'.

What is this topic for, High school? University?

Claude.
