Silver-31 undergoes positron emission to form palladium-31 by emitting a positron (e+) and turning one of its protons into a neutron. This reaction helps stabilize the nucleus by converting a proton into a neutron.
If you are talking about beta+ decay, then the emission of a positron is accompanied with the emission of an electron neutrino.
In positron emission, the positron is produced from the nucleus of an atom when a proton is converted into a neutron and a positively charged positron. This process helps to make the nucleus more stable by decreasing the number of protons.
Geological positron emission refers to the emission of positrons (positively charged electrons) from rocks or minerals. This phenomenon can be used in geological studies to understand rock properties, such as porosity and composition, by measuring the rate of positron emission. It is a valuable tool in geophysical exploration and understanding the subsurface structure of the Earth.
Work backwards. Positron emission means (essentially) a proton decayed into a neutron/positron pair. The mass number remains the same, but the atomic number goes down one to Bromine. Krypton has an isotope that fits this bill.

Oxygen-15 undergoes beta-plus decay, where a proton is converted into a neutron, resulting in the emission of a positron and a neutrino. The positron subsequently annihilates with an electron, producing two gamma rays. This process results in the formation of nitrogen-15.
Oxygen-15 is an isotope of oxygen, frequently used in positron emission tomography, or PET imaging. It is not stable.

The nuclear equation for positron emission of Ca-37 is: 37Ca -> 37K + e^+ + v + γ This reaction involves the emission of a positron (e^+), resulting in the conversion of a calcium-37 nucleus to a potassium-37 nucleus, along with a neutrino (v) and a gamma ray (γ).

When an atomic nucleus releases a positron, it has undergone beta plus decay. This nuclear transformation event also will release a neutrino. Use the link below for more information.
