The energy is called nuclear radiation, high energy particles and rays that are emitted by the nuclei of some atoms.

Radioactivity?
Nuclear energy
Atoms are not constantly being destroyed and recreated. According to the law of conservation of mass, atoms cannot be created or destroyed, only rearranged in chemical reactions. However, the nuclei of some unstable atoms can undergo radioactive decay, releasing particles and energy in the process. These decayed nuclei can be considered as "destroyed" and new atoms can be formed through nuclear reactions.

Radioactivity?
Yes alpha particles are matter. In fact they are just the nuclei of Helium atoms. That is Helium atoms without their two orbiting electrons. Alpha particles are therefore composed of two neutrons and two protons.
nuclear energy
Nuclear energy
the energy stored inside the nuclei of atoms.
Nuclear fusion between nuclei of smaller atoms forms the nuclei of larger atoms and releases energy.
Plasma forms when a gas becomes extremely hot. When this happens, the gas' atoms gain lots of energy. This energy causes the electrons to detach from the nuclei of the gas' atoms. When the negatively charged electrons detach, the positively charged protons and neutral particles called neutrons in the nuclei are left.
There are two particles found in the nuclei of atoms, Protons and Neutrons.
No. Molecules don't have a collective nucleus, although the atoms that compose the molecule have their own nuclei.
