Magical Radiation

Magic is a special type of energy that some scientists consider to be the 5th fundamental interaction (such as electromagnetism or gravity).

Origin
The main sourse of magical radiation is a metal recondite, obtained as a result of Crossover Research experiment related to parallel worlds.

The origin of magic is not fully understood, but before The Incident the Crossover Research scientists managed to find that the magical radiation originates from the protons and neutrons consisting of a special parallel quarks.

Features and Effects
Magic has a "frequency" that resonates with different physical phenomena (e.g. time, temperature, fire, etc.) that allow to control them. This "frequency" was called distortionity. The unit of distortionity is named geam in honor of the chief researcher of magical radiation Dr. Geam.

Frequent contact with high-distortionity magical radiation can lead to serious illnesses.
