There are 4 different types of decay, the first is alpha decay this releases a helium nucleus ( 2 protons and 2 neutrons) the second is a beta particle also known as an electron. The third is beta minus decay which is a positron, it is the same as an electron in every way except it has a positive charge where as an electron has a negative charge. The last is gamma decay, which releases a gamma ray, this is a type of electromagnetic wave.

What are the three products of radioactivity decay?
alpha decay, beta decay, and gamma radiation
High-energy light waves that are released from a radioactive nucleus during alpha decay and beta decay?
Gamma rays, which are photons with a certain energy step change, are emitted from the nucleus when the nucleus is returned from an excited state back down to ground state, as often occurs during alpha and beta decay.
What are radon daughters?
Radon daughters are the products of uranium decay.
Is neutron number conserved in radioactive decay?
The number of neutrons is not conserved during decay.
Are x-rays emitted during radioactive decay?
Yes they are. Nearly all kinds of electromagnetic radiation are emitted during radioactive decay
What does ununhexium decay into?
The decay products of ununhexium (after alpha decay) are isotopes of ununquadium.

What is the definition of necular energy?
Atomic energy is released during a nuclear reaction during fission or fusion. It is released by the nucleus of an atom and can also be a result of radioactive decay.
What is the decay products of americium 241?
The decay product of Am-241 is Np-237.
What causes newly formed atoms more neutrons and kinetic energy?
products of nuclear fission reactions
What happened during nuclear decay?
New elements(or isotopes of decaying element) are produced and energy is released
What type of radiation is released during the decay of californium?
Alpha particles and neutrons fron spontaneous fission
What is the products produce from ununseptium?
The decay products of ununseptium are isotopes of ununpentium.
What are the products of bohrium?
The decay products of bohrium isotopes are dubnium isotopes.
