ultraviolet
Ultraviolet radiation is a form of energy. It is higher in energy, and has a shorter wavelength, than the visible light we can see with our eyes. On the electromagnetic spectrum, it lies just past the band of visible light on the violet side. Ultraviolet radiation is responsible for sun burns if you stay exposed to the sun for too long.
