Is alpha radiation a ionization radiation?
Yes, alpha radiation is an ionizing radiation.
What stage of ionization usually produces more ions?
The stage of ionization that usually produces more ions is the complete ionization stage. This is when all of the atoms or molecules in a substance have been ionized, resulting in a high concentration of ions.
What is the most common type of damage done to cells by radiation?
ionization
Which type of radiation produces a wave and a lot of energy?
Gamma radiation is a type of nuclear radiation made of high energy waves.
How is background radiation detected?
with one of several types of radiac: Geiger Counter, Scintillation Counter, Ionization Chamber, Electroscope, etc.
Is alpha radiation a ionization radiation?
Yes, alpha radiation is an ionizing radiation.
What is it called when radiation destroys atoms?
Ionization
What 'ultra' produces radiation?
ultraviolet produces radiation.
What stage of ionization usually produces more ions?
The stage of ionization that usually produces more ions is the complete ionization stage. This is when all of the atoms or molecules in a substance have been ionized, resulting in a high concentration of ions.
What does ionizing radiation sign mean?
If an atom is charged, and can bind together with radiation, then ionization occurs. When you have an energy source, you will typically have radiation as well.

electromagnetic

ionization
Cancer and related diseases are caused due to primary radiation or secondary radiation or non ionization radiation or ionization radiation?
Cancers are caused by uncontrolled growth of tissue. Most commonly caused by environmental chemicals. Or fine fibres such as Asbestos or very fine glass. Ionizing radiation can cause cancers IF the damage it does then goes on to produce an unwanted growth of tissue.
Which is the term for when radiation dislodges electrons from atoms and breaks apart molecules in the body?
Ionization
What are ionization chambers used for?
Ionization chambers are filled with gas that contains positive and negative electrodes. They are instruments used for measuring the amount of radiation passing through.
