What is the radiation type for alpha?
Alpha (and beta) radiation is "particle radiation" Gamma is electro-magnetic radiation.
What is radioactivity and what is the difference between alpha beta and gamma radiation?
Alpha radiation is helium-4 nuclei - i.e., each alpha particle consists of 2 protons and 2 neutrons.Beta radiation is either electrons or positrons (= anti-electrons). Gamma radiation is high-energy photons.
List the three main types of nuclear radiation in order of increasing ionizing ability?
Alpha, Beta, Gamma and cosmic are all examples of radiation.Types of radiation could be:Ionizing radiationElectromagnetic radiationInfra red radiation
What radiation type has the greatest ability to penetrate human tissue?
Gamma radiation. Alpha radiation is the least penetrating, beta radiation penetrates and lasts longer than alpha but also "dies out" relatively quickly, but Gamma radiation will not only penetrate deep, but it will also stay long.
Wet decontamination can block what radiation from being detected?
gamma
Three forms of radiation?
Alpha, Beta and Gamma
What are the 3 particles of radiation?
Alpha, Beta and Gamma
Types of radiation rays?
alpha , beta, gamma
Differences between the four main types of nuclear radiation alpha particles beta particles gamma rays and neutron emission?
There are only three types of nuclear radiation - Alpha, Beta & Gamma.
Beta radiation used rather than alpha or gamma radiation in this paper thickness equipment?
beta radiation used in this paper thickness equipment because alpha and gamma are very strong radiation which can not be used for paper thickness equipment such as paper are used by every one and it could cause radiation if other nuclear radiation like alpha and gamma are used.
Is Alpha Beta or gamma made from electrons?
Beta radiation is made from electrons (or positrons for inverse beta radiation). Alpha radiation is a helium nucleus, and gamma radiation is a high energy electromagnetic ray.
Is alpha and beta decay are almost always accompanied by what?
gamma radiation
