| The radioactive material generates ionising radiations, which include alpha particles, beta particles, X-rays and gamma rays. |
| Atomic number 101 is a radioactive transuranic element synthesized by bombarding einsteinium with alpha particles. |
| Alpha decay occurs when an atomic nucleus disintegrates by emitting alpha particles. |
| This was used on his electroscopes and on his ionisation chambers for the work that he did with alpha particles. |
| The raw spectra of protons, deuterons, tritons and alpha particles were fitted with a three moving source prescription. |
| The major disadvantage of thoria are the environmental issues due to the exposure to the alpha particles emitted by thorium. |
