Alpha particle. Alpha particles consist of two protons and two neutrons bound together into a particle identical to a helium nucleus. They are generally produced in the process of alpha decay, but may also be produced in other ways.
From what I've learnt, an alpha particle is identical to the nucleus in that it has two protons and two neturons; mass 4 and atomic number 2.Maybe your teacher meant it isn't 'helium', as in it isn't a monatomic gas with those properties.sker's rating.
