Beta (\(\beta^-\)) decay is the release of an electron by the change ... combine to ‘annihilate’ each other the only result is energy. In hospitals, radioactive molecules that emit antimatter ...

These devices are a form of betavoltaic technology, harnessing energy from the beta decay of nuclear waste ... in a more stable configuration. This release generates beta radiation, a stream ...

It goes back to beta decays. As the physicist Wolfgang Pauli noted with puzzlement in 1930, the energy sum of the decay doesn’t add up if you assume a neutron just decays to a proton and electron.

Beta decay involves the release of an electron. Both result in a mass defect and the release of energy, both of which can be calculated. Inverse square law Irradiance of electromagnetic radiation ...
