The end point energy of a beta decay is the kinetic energy of all particles emitted through B-decay. This is often ignoring the energy of the recoiling daughter nucleus.
Beta particles can travel up to a few meters in air before they lose energy and are absorbed. The distance they can travel depends on the energy of the particle, with higher energy beta particles able to travel further.
The mean energy of a beta particle is typically lower than the maximum energy. This is because beta decay produces a spectrum of energies, with some particles having lower energy levels and some reaching the maximum energy allowed by the decay process. The mean energy is a measure of the average energy of all emitted beta particles.
A beta particle is a negative electron. A positive electron is a Positron.
The symbol for a beta particle is either β- or e-, representing an electron. Beta particles are high-energy, high-speed electrons emitted during the process of beta decay in certain radioactive nuclei.

beta particle In beta decay a neutron is converted into a proton, electron (also called a beta particle) and an electron antineutrino.
A beta particle is an electron (or positron) with high energy and speed.
The strength of a beta particle is its ability to cross the absorber to reach the detector.Now the strength of a beta particle depends upon the energy of the beta particle and thickness of the absorber.

A beta particle is a high energy electron. An alpha particle is a helium nucleus. A gamma ray is a high energy photon.
The energy of beta particles in beta decay is not fixed because it depends on the specific isotope and decay process involved. Beta decay can produce high-energy electrons and positrons through beta minus and beta plus decay, respectively. The energy of the beta particles is determined by the energy released during the decay process.
Beta particles can have a wide range of energies, depending on the speed (and therefore the momentum) of the beta particle.
Low energy beta particles, say, from tritium, are called soft beta particles.
Beta particles can travel up to a few meters in air before they lose energy and are absorbed. The distance they can travel depends on the energy of the particle, with higher energy beta particles able to travel further.
