Question

Which radiation is used to change atomoic and mass number?

Answer 1

Certain radionuclides of high atomic mass (Ra226, U238, Pu239) decay by the emission of alpha particles. ... The emission of gamma rays does not alter the number of protons or neutrons in the nucleus but instead has the effect of moving the nucleus from a higher to a lower energy state (unstable to stable).

i hope it help you dear
