    This document is about beta decay, a type of radioactive decay where a proton transforms into a neutron or vice versa inside a radioactive nucleus. It begins by defining beta decay and noting its history. It then explains the need for beta decay and provides the generalized equation. It describes how beta decay occurs via weak interaction and neutrino emission. It identifies the two types of beta decay and provides an example. The document is intended to explain the key aspects and processes involved in beta decay.

    What is Beta decay?
    Beta Decay is a type of radioactive decay in which a
    proton is transformed into a neutron or vice versa inside
    the nucleus of the radioactive sample. Processes like beta
    decay and alpha decay allow the nucleus of the
    radioactive sample to get as close as possible to the
    optimum neutron/ proton ratio. While doing so, the
    nucleus emits a beta particle which can either be an
    electron or positron. Remember that there either a
    proton can turn into a neutron or a neutron into a
    proton. Electron and the positron are generated to obey
    the law of conservation of charge. Beta-decay occurs via
    weak interaction
