One type of atom (nuclide) breaks up, emitting some particle and energy, and converting into another type of nuclide.
The final result of radioactive decay is a stable daughter product that is no longer radioactive. This process involves the emission of radiation in the form of alpha or beta particles, as well as gamma rays, until the original radioactive isotope reaches a stable state.
If it is related to Nuclear studies, then the answer would be fusion.
No, radioactive isotopes are not necessarily electrically unbalanced. Radioactive isotopes have unstable nuclei that undergo radioactive decay, which can result in the emission of radiation such as alpha, beta, or gamma particles to achieve a more stable state. This decay process does not impact the electrical balance of the atom.
That statement is not entirely accurate. Radioactive decay can involve the emission of alpha particles, beta particles (electrons or positrons), and gamma rays. Electrons can be involved in certain types of radioactive decay processes.

It is a result of the alpha radioactive decay of actinium.

radioactive decay
If you mean "alpha radiation", that is the result of certain types of radioactive decay.
The radioactive decay of americium 241 is by alpha disintegration; the disintegration of radioactive krypton isotopes is by beta particles emission.
If it is related to Nuclear studies, then the answer would be fusion.
The daughter product of nuclear decay is a new element or isotope that is formed as a result of the original radioactive material decaying.
Decay energy is the energy that has been freed during radioactive decay. When radioactive decay is ongoing it drops off some energy by means of discharging radiation.
One reason is that radioactive decay heats the earths interior
