Question

What are alpha particles????? ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Alpha particles, also called alpha rays or alpha radiation, consist of two protons and two neutrons bound together into a particle identical to a helium-4 nucleus. They are generally produced in the process of alpha decay, but may also be produced in other ways

• Alpha particles (a) are composite particles consisting of two protons and two neutrons tightly bound together (Figure 1).

• They are emitted from the nucleus of some radionuclides during a form of radioactive decay, called alpha-decay.

• An alpha-particle is identical to the nucleus of a normal (atomic mass four) helium atom i.e. a doubly ionised helium atom

• Alpha particles (also termed alpha radiation or alpha rays) was the first nuclear radiation to be discovered, beta particles and gamma rays were identified soon after.
