radiation
alpha
ionisung
helium nuclouse
two neutrons and two protons
mass of 2 charge of +2
stopped by 2cm of air
stopped by papper
alpha decay
very strongly ionising
used in smoke detectors
gamma
non ionising
gamma decay
electro magnetic wave
very short wave length
stopped by lead
beata
ionising
electron
mass of 0 charge of -1
stopped by 2cm aliminium
stopped by 2 meters of air
beata decay
effect in a magnetic feeld
alpha radiation is positively charged and so is attracted to words the negative pole
they are not deflected strongly as they have a large mass
beta radiation having negative charge means that it is deflected to the positive pole
has low mass so are deflected strongly
gamma no charge goes straight thrue
