Radiation results in the emission of energy in the form of particles or electromagnetic waves. This can include alpha particles, beta particles, gamma rays, and X-rays, depending on the source and type of radiation. These emissions occur during radioactive decay or other nuclear reactions, leading to the transfer of energy away from the emitting source.
This radiation can be called protonic.
In beta radiation, an emission of electrons can occur due to beta decay. A neutron can disintegrate into protons and electrons.
The radiation that results in the emission of helium nuclei is known as alpha radiation. In this process, an unstable atomic nucleus emits an alpha particle, which consists of two protons and two neutrons, effectively transforming into a different element with a lower atomic number. This type of radiation is common in heavy elements, such as uranium and radium, as they seek to achieve a more stable configuration. Alpha particles have low penetration power and can be stopped by paper or the outer layer of human skin.
Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation
X-rays are not a type of nuclear radiation. They are a type of electromagnetic radiation.
This radiation can be called protonic.
No, alpha radiation does not result in the emission of electrons. It involves the emission of alpha particles, which are helium nuclei consisting of 2 protons and 2 neutrons.
In beta radiation, an emission of electrons can occur due to beta decay. A neutron can disintegrate into protons and electrons.
Laser is short of light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation.

Spontaneous radiation is incoherent because it occurs randomly with no fixed phase relationship between emitted photons. This randomness results in a broad range of frequencies and directions for the emitted radiation, making it incoherent.
Emission refers to the release of radiation from a source. This can occur in various forms such as light, heat, or particles. Emission can either increase the intensity of radiation or change its properties, depending on the source and energy involved.
It stands for Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation.
The laser causes the stimulated emission of radiation. The light emitted is monochromatic and coherent,that is plane polarised. I imagine that spontaneous emission occurs in a Light emitting diode ,monochromatic but not polarised. Hope this is of help
Radioactivity is the term defined as the emission of energy from subatomic particles.
No, not all radiation is electromagnetic radiation, though some is. Exceptions: Neutron radiation - Emission of neutrons. Alpha decay - Emission of a helium-4 nucleus (2 protons and 2 neutrons). Beta radiation - Emission of electrons.
