Radioactive decay, also known as nuclear decay or radioactivity, is the process by which a nucleus of an unstable atom loses energy by emitting radiation.A material that spontaneously emits such radiation â which includes alpha particles, beta particles, gamma rays and conversion electrons â is considered radioactive.adioactive decay is a stochastic (i.e. random) process at the level of single atoms, in that, according to quantum theory, it is impossible to predict when a particular atom will decay.
Radioactive waste Materials which are radioactive and for which there is no further use. Radioactivity The spontaneous decay of disintegration of an unstable atomic nucleus accompanied by the emission of radiation. Radioisotope A radioactive isotope. A common term for a radionuclide. Radionuclide A radioactive nuclide. An unstable isotope of an element that decays or disintegrates spontaneously, emitting radiation. Rate meter
