Welcome Becquerel Group complete booklet pages 25 and 27 Types of Ionizing Radiation Ionizing radiation takes a few forms: Alpha, beta, and neutron particles, and gamma and X-rays. All types are caused by unstable atoms, which have either an excess of energy or mass (or both). In order to reach a stable state, they must release that extra energy or mass in the form of radiation. Alpha Radiation Alpha radiation: The emission of an alpha particle from the nucleus of an atom Alpha radiation occurs when an atom undergoes radioactive decay, giving off a particle (called an alpha particle) consisting of two protons and two neutrons (essentially the nucleus of a helium-4 atom), changing the originating atom to one of an element with an atomic number 2 less and atomic weight 4 less than it started with. Due to their charge and mass, alpha particles interact strongly with matter, and only travel a few centimeters in air. Alpha particles are unable to penetrate the outer layer of dead skin ...
What I believe is the big bang theory is wrong. That's because if there was really an explosion, the universe would not be organized in this way.
