Alpha.
Alpha radiation is absorbed by a sheet of paper; beta radiation is absorbed by a person; gamma radiation is absorbed by a stell wall. However, small amounts of gamma radiation can still be absorbed by a person.
Alpha, from outside the body, because alpha is stopped by the skin, a sheet of paper, or a few inches of air. From inside the body, however, alpha is one of the most dangerous forms of radiation.
alpha particles.
beta radiation used in this paper thickness equipment because alpha and gamma are very strong radiation which can not be used for paper thickness equipment such as paper are used by every one and it could cause radiation if other nuclear radiation like alpha and gamma are used.
There are different kinds of radiation and different kinds of paper. For the electromagnetic radiation, every material has "transparency windows". Sunlight is the electromagnetic radiation, too. As you can tell, some paper is transparent to it and some not. If we consider the particles radiation, then the particles nature and energy play major roles. Some heavy particles with low energy can be scattered by even relatively light obstacles. Whereas such particles as neutrino easily go through the entire Earth. alpha particles can be stopped by thin objects such as paper. beta particles can be stopped by thicker objects suck as plastic or aluminum foil gamma radiation can be stopped by several feet thick of concrete and/or lead
Nuclear radiation is radiation that is emitted by atomic nuclei in various nuclear processes ( fusion...). There are three types of nuclear radiation:- 1)Alpha----> the least penetrating of all, it can be stopped by a sheet of paper. 2)Beta----> more penertrating than alpha, less penetrating than gamma, can be stopped by an aluminum sheet. 3) Gamma-----> most penetrating, can be stopped by meters of concrete.
Yes, Alpha radiation could be stopped by normal paper.

To stop radiation leaking out. Alpha and Beta types of radiation will be stopped by the concrete
alpha particles.
Alpha radiation consists of very heavy particles that can easily be stopped by a piece of paper. Beta radiation is much lighter and can be stopped by maybe 1/2 inch to 1 inch thick paper. Gamma radiation is high energy electromagnetic waves ( like x - rays) and can penetrate very much farther. Usually attenuation of gamma is referred to as tenth thickness or the thichness of a material that will decrease the amound of gamma rays penetrating it to 1/10 th of the original amount.
beta radiation used in this paper thickness equipment because alpha and gamma are very strong radiation which can not be used for paper thickness equipment such as paper are used by every one and it could cause radiation if other nuclear radiation like alpha and gamma are used.
There are no immediate signed of nuclear radiation.
It depends on the type of radiation. Alpha can be stopped with a few inches of air, or even a sheet of paper. Beta can be stopped with a sheet of metal. Gamma and neutron takes lead and/or concrete, sometimes several feet. Neutrinos can hardly be stopped by anything - they travel through the Earth with ease.
Nuclear weapons emit nuclear radiation, with gamma radiation being the most common and dangerous.
