All radioactivity whether natural or induced through man made activities is a nuclear process, because it involves changes in the nuclei of the atoms of the active material. This is true of alpha, beta, and gamma radiation.
No nuclear particle has a relative mass of 4. However, the alpha particle which is emitted by one of the radioactive iodine isotopes, has a relative mass of 4. An alpha particle is emitted from the nucleus but not referred to as a nuclear particle because it is made up of 4 nuclear particles - 2 neutrons and 2 protons.
Samarium-146 is the lightest element found naturally on earth to undergo Alpha emission. There are no accompanying gamma radiations. Source: Chemistry: The Practical Science, Volume 10 By Paul B. Kelter, Michael D. Mosher, Andrew Scott Tellurimum- 106 to 110 will be the answer if artificially made isotopes are included.
The reaction is:Pu-239 + alpha = Cm-242 + n
The alpha particle has a composition identical to a helium nucleus, specifically, the nucleus of helium-4. The alpha particle, however, is a product of radioactive decay, and is usually moving pretty fast. When we speak of helium nuclei, we are usually speaking of things that are much less energetic.
One way that elements decay is by alpha-emission. That means that the nucleus of the atom spews out alpha particles. An alpha particle is made of two protons and two neutrons, like a helium nucleus. Of course, once an alpha particle is emitted, the number of protons in the nucleus decreases, and the element changes with the number of protons.
It is made by lord God, The Alpha and The Omega.

People made the nuclear bomb and you can make a time machine using that equation.
Gamma camera is the common equipment used in nuclear medicine to detect various diseases.Technique used is scintigraphy(detecting amount of radiation emitted) of gamma emission and the intensity is used as images.These images are interpreted by radiologist or nuclear medicine specialists.Common indication for such a study is cancer detection especially bone metastasis.SPECT is a modification.PET(Positron emission Tomography) machine can be made incorporating gamma camera.
It depends on the element. Some synthetic elements can be made by bombarding the nucleus of a lighter element with protons or alpha particles. The heavier synthetic elements are made by colliding atomic nuclei with one another.
Alpha particles. They are identical to ionized nuclei of helium, but have much greater energy (velocity). They are produced in the alpha process of radioactive decay, and in a type of nuclear fission called ternary (three-product) fission.
No, it cannot. Fission is the "splitting" of an atom, and a hydrogen atom will not fission. Some hydrogen atoms have a neutron stuck to the proton in their nucleus. Some even have two neutrons stuck to that proton. These neutrons can be "knocked loose" in something like a nuclear chair reaction in a weapon. The neutrons then can contribute to the building of the nuclear chain reaction. But fission doesn't happen to hydrogen.

The nuclear matrix is made of protein and RNA fibrils.
Nuclear Energy is made up of atoms that can be naturally made or man made.
Nuclear decay.Different types of nuclear decay include:Alpha Decay, where the nucleus ejects a charged particle made of protons and neutrons.Beta Decay, where a neutron turns into a proton, a Beta particle (an electron or positron) and a neutrino.Gamma radiation can also be emitted in these processes.
