Question

What is meant by alpha particles in binding energy?

Answer 1

One of the major problems of the physics of nuclei is the explanation of the high binding energy of Helium 4 nucleus, the alpha particle. A deuteron (proton-neutron pair) has a binding energy of 2.225 million electron volts (MeV) but an alpha particle has a binding energy of 28.3 MeV.
