Why are gamma rays highest frequency?

Gamma rays are radiation from nuclear decay, when a nucleus changes from an excited energy state to a lower energy state. Gamma rays are typically waves of frequencies greater than 1019 Hz. They have high energies (greater than 10 4 eV per photon) and extremely short wavelengths (less than 10 −14 m) .
