Question

What is a negative beta decay?

Answer 1

Hey Friend

Here is your Answer,

Negative beta decay :--

an energetic negative electron is emitted, producing a daughter nucleus of one higher atomic number and the same mass number. An example is the decay of the uranium daughter product thorium-234 into protactinium-234.

In the given picture's reaction for beta decay, ν- represents the antineutrino.the number of protons is increased by one in the reaction, but the total charge remains the same, because an electron, with negative charge, is also created.
