Describe what happens{beta} -a neutron in the nucleus spontaneously decays, into a proton and an electron -the proton stays in the nucleus while the electron flies out
Describe what happens{gamma] -if a nucleus still has enough energy it can get rid of extra energy by releasing a gamma ray -gamma rays may be emitted alongside alpha and beta particles
