Among the common types of radiation, alpha particles are the largest in size. Alpha particles consist of two protons and two neutrons, making them significantly larger than beta particles (which are electrons or positrons) and gamma rays (which are electromagnetic radiation). Due to their size, alpha particles have lower penetration power compared to other forms of radiation and can be stopped by a sheet of paper or human skin.
