There are many different types of radiation, going from radiowaves, to lightwaves, and even to gamma rays!
Alpha radiation.
Radiation is detected using scintillation detectors, which convert radiation into light pulses, and Geiger-Muller detectors, which amplify the ionization produced by radiation. Two ways radiation is measured are by exposure, which quantifies the amount of ionization produced by radiation in air, and by dose, which measures the energy deposited by radiation in a material.

The answer to this question is no. Radiation can occur when objects are not touching
The form of radiation that consists of two neutrons and two protons is an alpha particle. It is essentially a helium nucleus and is relatively large compared to other types of radiation, with a low penetration ability.
There are two main types of radiation: External Radiation External radiation is the most common type of radiation, typically given after lumpectomy and sometimes, mastectomy. Internal Radiation Internal radiation is a less common method of giving radiation. It is being studied for use after lumpectomy.
Yes, alpha radiation is a form of ionizing radiation. It consists of alpha particles, which are helium nuclei composed of two protons and two neutrons. These particles have high energy and can ionize atoms by knocking off electrons from them as they pass through matter.
X-rays and gamma rays are the two types of radiation that can pass through a sheet of card due to their high energy and penetrating abilities.
Two types of radiation are electromagnetic radiation, such as X-rays and microwaves, which travel in waves at the speed of light; and particle radiation, such as alpha and beta particles, which consist of high-speed particles emitted from a radioactive source.
The intensity of any electromagnetic radiation is inversely proportional to the square of the distance of the emitter of that radiation.
