متن کاملBeta and gamma decays
1 Simple Fermi theory of beta decay 2 Beta decay is one of the most easily found kinds of radioactivity. As we have seen, this result of the weak interaction leads to conversion of a neutron into a proton or vice versa, with the necessary charge change being made possible by the emission of a positive or negative beta particle (positron or electron). To ensure conservation of lepton number, eac...
