For transmutation of atoms by bombarding with alpha
An alpha ray is a type of radioactive decay product that consists of two protons and two neutrons, which is essentially a helium nucleus. Alpha rays have low penetration power and can be stopped by a piece of paper or human skin.
The three main types of radiation are alpha radiation, beta radiation, and gamma radiation. Alpha radiation consists of alpha particles, beta radiation consists of beta particles, and gamma radiation consists of gamma rays.
Alpha particles have the least penetrating power compared to gamma rays and beta particles. This is because alpha particles are heavier and more positively charged, which makes them easily absorbed by materials, including skin.
The mass of an alpha particle is 4 atomic mass units, 2 protons and 2 neutrons, or about 6.644656 x 10-27 kg.
Alpha particles are helium nuclei -- each particle is composed of two protons and two neutrons. A stream of alpha particles may be called a ray, although as it is not electromagnetic radiation that is probably inaccurate.

a. an alpha particle
alpha particle alpha ray
Alpha and beta are not electromagnetic radiation.
He42 2+
Gamma Ray
alpha ray.
no, it is an alpha particle.
Gamma rays are a part of the electromagnetic spectrum.
ernest Rutherford is the answer....
The correct order is c) Alpha particle, beta particle, gamma ray. Alpha particles have the greatest mass, followed by beta particles, and then gamma rays which have no mass.
alpha ray Stream of particles containg two neutrons is, I believe: Alpha Ray
