'Nuclear' means of or to do with the nucleus of something. It usually, but not always, refers to the nucleus of an atom. From this, we get nuclear energy (energy stored in the nucleus when it forms) nuclear bombs/power stations (which utilise this energy for certain purposes) and nuclear charge (the electrical charge in/on a nucleus), among many other terms.
X-rays are not a type of nuclear radiation. They are a type of electromagnetic radiation.
If a neutron star's rotational period is fast enough to produce jets (A pulsar), said jets will emit radio waves, with faster periods emitting higher frequency radiation as well as the jets themselves emitting synchrotron radiation. Also, unless the neutron star were 0K, it will emit thermal radiation However, as far as a neutron star that isn't a pulsar, nobody knows if they emit anything but thermal radiation.
All of them - alpha - beta - neutron - visible light - are examples of nuclear radiation.
Neutron stars are able to produce pulses of radiation because they are rotating, and only a certain place on the neutron star releases the radiation(just like how light comes out of a flashlight). As the neutron star rotates, the point on the neutron star also moves along. When it points toward the Earth, we see the pulse.
All "pulsars" are neutron stars - it's just "we" term pulsars as neutron stars who's orientation towards us shows the beam of electromagnetic radiation. Other neutron stars who's orientation, do not point towards us are not called pulsars, although they exhibit the same characteristics.
Neutron rays are not a recognized form of radiation. Neutrons are subatomic particles found in the nucleus of an atom, and they can be emitted as radiation during certain nuclear processes. However, they are typically referred to as neutron radiation, not neutron rays.

neutron radiation
Yes and they are a penetrating form of radiation.
Yes
A neutron cloud can be dangerous due to its ability to penetrate materials and cause radiation exposure. Exposure to neutron radiation can lead to tissue damage, radiation sickness, and an increased risk of cancer. It is important to limit exposure to neutron clouds and take appropriate safety precautions to minimize the risks associated with them.
The neutron radiation can turn stable elements in your body to radioactive isotopes (called neutron activation). This makes you radioactive in a way that cannot be removed by any attempt at decontamination. No other type of radiation can do this.
Alpha, Beta, Neutron, X-ray, Gamma, Neutron radiation, Electromagnetic radiation, Visible light, Infrared, Microwave, Radio waves, Very low frequency (VLF), Extremely low frequency (ELF), Thermal radiation (heat) and Black body radiation.
The radiation particle used in the bombardment of nitrogen-14 is a neutron. When a neutron collides with a nitrogen-14 nucleus, it can create carbon-14 through a process called neutron capture.
If a neutron star's rotational period is fast enough to produce jets (A pulsar), said jets will emit radio waves, with faster periods emitting higher frequency radiation as well as the jets themselves emitting synchrotron radiation. Also, unless the neutron star were 0K, it will emit thermal radiation However, as far as a neutron star that isn't a pulsar, nobody knows if they emit anything but thermal radiation.
Five types of radiation include alpha, beta, gamma, neutron, and electromagnetic radiation (such as x-rays and UV rays). Gamma and neutron radiation are generally considered the most dangerous due to their ability to penetrate deep into tissues and cause severe damage.
