Title: Order of strength
Post by: Schrödinger on May 13, 2009, 11:55:13 PM

Can anyone give me the order (relative) of radioactive decay strength among the following:


Nuetron, proton, alpha, beta, gamma, positron

What is a radioactive decay strength? Do you mean energy freed in each type of decay?
