You're referring to the "neutrino". All subatomic particles have characteristics to
boggle the human mind, but the neutrino is particularly capable of boggling minds
untrained in Physics.
It's been written that the neutrino's interaction with ordinary matter is so weak that
one of them would have a 50% chance of hitting something on its way through
eight light-years of solid lead !
And when you think about it, that's not even the most amazing part ! The most
amazing part is: If that's true, then how did anybody ever build anything that can
detect neutrinos ? (It's been done for several years now.)

When potassium-39 is bombarded by neutrons chlorine-36 is produced what other particles are emitted?
An Alpha particle
Who identified cathode rays as subatomic particles?
Experiments with cathode rays led to the discovery of the electron.
What is produced by interaction of ions and the atmosphere?
when a charged particle interact with the atmosphere, it creates a lightning bolt just like when it is a thunder storm. in a thunder storm the charged particles interact with the particles in the atmosphere creating a lightning bolt.
What is the dust like particles produced in the anthers of flowers called?
The dustlike particles produced in the anthers of flowers are pollen.
What particle both begins and produced by a nuclear chain reaction?
A Neutron.
How does light produce and propogated?
Light is produced it does not produce. It is produced by the excitement of subatomic particles called photons and propagated by radiation
What is a glowing region in the atmosphere?
The Northern Lights, which are produced by particles from the sun interacting with the earth's magnetic field and the upper atmosphere.
The subatomic particle that is the cause of electricity?
The most common charge carrier in electricity is the electron. However there are special cases where other things act as charge carriers, but they are usually not subatomic particles:In electrolytes the charge carriers are ionsIn aqueous electrolytes it is possible for hydrogen ions (protons) to be charge carriersIn semiconductors the charge carriers can be either electrons or holes (virtual particles produced by electron gaps in valence band)

Describes how transuranic elements are produced?
Transuranic elements (elements with a greater atomic no.>92) are produced by the bombardment of large nuclei with neutrons in a nuclear reactor and other small particles (ie. beta and alpha particles) in a particle accelerator.
How does the sound produced a vibrating object in a medium reach your ear'?
When an object vibrates, it forces the neighbouring particles of the medium to vibrate. These vibrating particles then force the particles adjacent to them to vibrate. In this way, vibrations produced by an object are transferred from one particle to another till it reaches the ear.
How nuclear source of energy is man made resource?
When we obtain nuclear energy from elements in the earth like Uranium, what we are doing, is obtaining energy which produced by splitting up subatomic particles. So we obtain the atomic energy from splitting up the atomic particles, not from the uranium itself, which is a natural resource. Since the splitting up of subatomic particles is completely "man-made", if you will and does not occur in the environment, Nuclear energy is a man made resource

What is alpha particle detector and what is the application of bjt in alpha particle detector?
A Geiger counter, also called a Geiger-Müller counter, is a type of particle detector that measures ionizing radiation. They detect the emission of nuclear radiation: alpha particles, beta particles or gamma rays. A Geiger counter detects radiation by ionization produced in a low-pressure gas in a Geiger-Müller tube

Quarks are point-like particles found mainly in baryons, mesons etc. The Higgs boson is a primary particle produced when the higgs field is excited
