Yes alpha particle goes under goes electromagnetic radiations. when an atom is exposed to the magnetic field the alpha particle deviates right through right direction which indicates does have capacity to excite and emits radiations to come to ground level.

What are the names of 2 types of ionising radiation?

Alpha and Beta Radiation are types of ionizing radiation. They are both charged particles though Alpha is heavier than the particle Beta.


How different alpha and beta radiation from gamma rays?

I'm not sure there are quantifiers for "difference", but "completely" comes close. Alpha and beta radiation is (massive) particle based, gamma rays are electromagnetic radiation ... technically this is a particle (photons), but photons have zero invariant mass. Alpha radiation is a helium nucleus on the run. Beta radiation is an electron on the run. Gamma radiation is a very high energy "light" ray (electromagnetic radiation).


Can ultrasound waves are alpha beta or gamma rays?

No, they are unrelated. Alpha and beta radiation are particle streams, not waves. And gamma rays are electromagnetic waves.


Where on the spectrum of electromagnetic waves does alpha radiation fit in?

Alpha radiation is not electromagnetic. It's a stream of helium nuclei.


Which of these masses is the largest alpha particle antineutrino gamma radiation beta particle?

What is the radiation type for alpha?

Alpha (and beta) radiation is "particle radiation" Gamma is electro-magnetic radiation.


Positively charged particle consisting of 2 protons and 2 neutrons which is given off by a radioactive substance is called what?

A radiation particle consisting of two protons and two neutrons is called an Alpha Particle. Alpha Particles have the same structure as a Helium nucleus. There are three forms of radiation, Alpha (Helium nucleus), Beta (a lone electron) and Gamma (an Electromagnetic wave).


Is beta the same kind of radiation as alpha but does not have particles?

No Alpha radiation is essentially a helium nucleus - a couple of protons and neutrons bound together as a particle Beta radiation is an electron or positron - still a particle but not the same kind of particle as alpha.


The nucleus of a helium atom is called?

The nucleus of a helium atom is called an alpha particle. The electromagnetic waves emitted by a nucleus are called gamma rays.


Are alpha rays neutrons?

Alpha particles are helium nuclei -- each particle is composed of two protons and two neutrons. A stream of alpha particles may be called a ray, although as it is not electromagnetic radiation that is probably inaccurate.


Why are film badges unsuitable for detecting alpha particle radiation?

Alpha can not make it through the badge holder to the film. This reason makes the film badges unsuitable for detecting alpha particle radiation.


What is a stream of particles containing two neutrons and two protons?

The particle described is an alpha particle, and we might call a stream of them alpha radiation or an alpha ray.
