Magnetic fields are fairly good at deflecting or blocking cosmic rays. Polyethylene also blocks cosmic rays to some extent, as does liquid hydrogen.

Is there beta rays present in nucleus?

yes beta rays are present in nucleus. these rays are due to negative pi meson


What rays have more energy beta or gamma rays?

Gamma rays have more energy than beta rays. Gamma rays are a form of electromagnetic radiation with the highest energy in the electromagnetic spectrum, while beta rays are high-energy, high-speed electrons or positrons.


Are gamma rays the same size as beta rays?

no


What are beta rays also called?

Beta rays are also called beta particles. They are high-speed electrons or positrons emitted by a radioactive nucleus during beta decay.


What is one unique fact about beta particales?

Beta particles are electrons, generally emitted by the cathode of a glow discharge system. When beta particles was discovered the atomic model was not known and the new "rays" were called with progressive names alfa rays, beta rays, gamma rays and so on.


Did any rays are identical to beta rays?

Are X-rays similar to beta rays?

Though both are forms of ionizing radiation, an X-ray is a form of electromagnetic radiation, while a beta ray is actually a beta particle. The beta particle is a form of particulate radiation, and the beta particle could be either an electron or a positron.


Are thegamma and alfa rays electromagnetic radiation?

The gamma rays are. The alpha and beta "rays" are not.

What are AphaGamma Beta rays?

Alpha, beta, and gamma rays are types of ionizing radiation. Alpha rays consist of positively charged particles (helium nuclei), beta rays are either electrons or positrons, and gamma rays are high-energy photons. These types of radiation have different penetrating abilities and biological effects.
