beta particle. A high-speed electron emitted by an atomic nucleus undergoing radioactive decay. A beta particle is created when a neutron becomes a proton. Beta particles have greater speed and penetrating power than alpha particles. â¦ The process by which a neutron becomes a proton and emits an electron is called beta decay.
See Alpha decay. Beta is a particle, a highly energetic electron or positron ejected by decay of a neutron or proton in a radioactive isotope atom. See Beta decay. Gamma radiation comprises highly energetic photons above the x-ray energy range that may arise in nuclear decay or reach earth from space.. In one example, Cobalt-60 decays to release a beta particle followed by gamma radiation from the resulting nickel 60.
