In effect, you have given them size ranges by saying that different types of radiation are produced by different processes and contain different physical makeups. I also concur that the ranges may have different components but maybe not quite the same as you indicate. Light for example has a large range of frequencies and if physical in nature would have different sizes to their frequency amplitudes. The term 'plane waves' of light has been bandied about since light first was considered as a wave; what is the dimension of the planar extent? or the penpendicular of that plane? Surely someone has to have an idea. If you make a small hole in a solid material and let just a small bit of light thru, it makes only a small spot on a screen placed at a certain distance from that screen. If the size of the source is as small as the opening then the projected spot will also be that same size no matter how far the screen is from the blocking material. Isn't this correct? If so then there definitely has to be a size associated with each frequency of light or other electromagnetic radiation band.
