K alpha and L alpha are secondary radiation lines that are peculiar to a given element bombarded with radiation (Xray tube).
When you radiate an element, it gives off secondary radiation measured as K alpha and L alpha lines. This secondary radiation is given off at an angle peculiar to the element being radiated. Hence one is able to analyse a mineral ore sample for wanted elements by setting up radiation detectors at the various angles peculiar to the elements being sort.
This process is used in auto-assay equipment used by mining companies wanting to reduce the time it takes to analyse samples chemically.
Yes, alpha radiation is an ionizing radiation.
Yes, alpha radiation is an ionizing radiation.
No. Decay is the process, radiation is the product.
Alpha and Beta Radiation are types of ionizing radiation. They are both charged particles though Alpha is heavier than the particle Beta.
It can be used for smoke detectors

Yes, alpha radiation is an ionizing radiation.
Alpha (and beta) radiation is "particle radiation" Gamma is electro-magnetic radiation.
No. Decay is the process, radiation is the product.
A zinc sulfide scintillator probe is used to detect alpha radiation. The scintillator probe is just sensitive to alpha radiation.

Alpha radiation
Alpha radiation.
alpha radiation
alpha radiation :)
Gamma radiation is the strongest, followed by beta, followed by alpha. So, in answer to your question; alpha is the weakest type of radiation :)
