Citation: “The phenomenon of optical emission predominantly in the UV, which accompanies the emission of X-rays, gamma rays,

and beta radiation from radioisotope sources and X-ray tubes was investigated by Rao.60 It was the first work in which the

emission of UV radiation was confirmed experimentally and a possible explanation for the mechanism of the UV emission was

given by the author”.

In the official Technical Report of the Defence Laboratory, (Defence Research and Development Organization, Ministry of Defence, Government of India at Jodhpur, Rajasthan, India) Rao first reported his discovery of New Atomic Phenomenon in 1997. The research work was first released as an Official Technical Report of the Laboratory, after formal approval by the then Director, Dr. A. R. Reddy in 1997, who also has been an Expert in Internal Dosimetry on Radiopharmaceuticals of International Atomic Energy Agency, Vienna, Austria)

This official Report on the New Atomic Phenomenon https://www.angelfire.com/sc3/1010/technicalreport.html attracted the Indian Dailies in April 1997. PRESS REPORTS

The above Abstract mentions 'Rao effect', Bharat Radiation.

University students from Finland recognized 'Rao effect' (X-ray source emits) as an important Physical Phenomenon. . http://www.students.tut.fi/~viigipuu/link/elmagef/ ,

 

'Rao effect' was extensively cited in the Internet:

In the Brazilian paper published in March 2010, the new atomic phenomenon was not termed as Rao Effect.  This was shown as Sixth Discovery in my article: http://www.scholarpedia.org/article/User:M.A.Padmanabha_Rao,_PhD_(A.I.I.M.S)

Excerpt from the paper:  In these circumstances, from all the radioisotopes investigated the author discovered incredibly very poor fluorescent light emission, which is neither visible to the naked eye nor can be explained by any known phenomenon1-4.  The author speculates that the cells and bodily organs would also be exposed to different energies by a new atomic phenomenon termed Rao (Padmanabha Rao) effect1-4.
