Loss of energy

What is the emission of ionizing radiation or particles caused by the

Radioactivity
spontaneous disintegration of atomic nuclei.
Discovery 4

Found that phosphorescence emitted a new kind

of radiation

Henri Bequerel
Types of Radiation 5

Alpha Rays nuclei of Helium atoms (2 protons, 2 neutrons)

Beta Rays electrons (created within the nucleus)

Gamma Rays high-energy photons

 6

Radioactive decay Radioactive decay is the process by which an

unstable atomic nucleus loses energy by
emitting radiation.
