The radioactive decay of americium 241 is by alpha disintegration; the disintegration of radioactive krypton isotopes is by beta particles emission.
Americium-241 has an alpha decay associated with gamma.
For example americium-241 decay to neptunium-237 and americium-243 decay to neptunium-239.
The alpha decay of americium-241 produce neptunium-237.
That depends on the type of decay, alpha and beta decay change the atom into a different element but gamma decay does not.
The lightest "element" that can undergo radioactive decay is the isotope hydrogen-3, which undergoes beta decay. The lightest element with no radioactively stable isotopes is technetium, and its isotopes have different modes of decay.
As all radioactive elements, isotopes of americium continuously decay.
Radioactive decay may or may not involve electrons. There are different types of radioactive decay.
Americium-241 has an alpha decay associated with gamma.
Americium is radioactive: The radiation from exposure to americium is the primary cause of health effects from absorbed americium. Americium moves rapidly through the body after uptake and is concentrated within the bones for a long period of time. During this storage americium will slowly decay and release radioactive particles and rays. These rays can cause alteration of genetic materials and bone cancers. Damage to organs due to americium exposure is highly unlikely for humans, because americium is accumulated in organs only a short period of time.
For example americium-241 decay to neptunium-237 and americium-243 decay to neptunium-239.
The name for the emissions of rays and particles by a radioactive material are called radioactive decay. There are many different types of radioactive decay that emit different rays and particles.

The term "used" is not adequate. The radioactive decay of Am-241 is associated with the emission of alpha particles and gamma rays.
The word Radioactive usually denotes a substance containing unstable atomic nuclei.

Krypton is an element, and all elements are the result of nuclear fission, nuclear fusion or radioactive decay. Krypton is one of the byproducts of the nuclear fission of Uranium and Plutonium, either from atomic bombs or nuclear reactors. Since Krypton is not one of the results of a natural radioactive decay chain, the only other possible source of Krypton is from nuclear fusion, and the only source of fusion powerful enough to produce it would be a supernova.
