* Beta decay

Beta radiation from radioactive decay can be stopped with a few centimeters of plastic or a few millimeters of metal.

Beta decay

Beta decay commonly occurs among the neutron-rich fission byproducts produced in nuclear reactors.

Beta plus decay can only happen inside nuclei when the absolute value of the binding energy of the daughter nucleus is higher than that of the mother nucleus.

Beta plus ( or positron ) decay of a radioactive tracer isotope is the source of the positrons used in positron emission tomography ( PET scan ).

Beta decay is the release of a beta particle, a high-energy electron.

* Beta decay is an example of an interaction due to the exchange of a W boson, but not an example of a force.

In particle physics, Fermi's interaction ( also the Fermi Theory of Beta Decay ) is an explanation of the beta decay, proposed by Enrico Fermi in 1933.

Beta decay, as always in this process, also produces an antineutrino, which carries off variable amounts of the beta decay energy.

Beta decay of fission products of mass 95-98 stops at the stable isotopes of molybdenum of those masses and does not reach technetium.

Beta stroboscopy occurs at 30 – 35 cycles per second: " The distinctness of the pattern has all but disappeared.

Mrs. Sandburg received a Phi Beta Kappa key from the University of Chicago and she was busy writing and teaching when she met Sandburg.

When the situation becomes desperate, Shin Hayata, the Patrol's most capable member, holds the key to salvation in the form of the " Beta Capsule ," which, when activated, allows him to transform secretly into the super-humanoid-powered giant from space, who becomes known to the people of Earth as Ultraman.

However, injuries that Hayata sustains are not transferred to Ultraman when Hayata activates the Beta Capsule, and Hayata can still be shown as wounded when Ultraman reverses the change, such as one episode when Hayata was knocked off a cliff and injured his left arm, after the fight he was shown with his arm in a sling, another episode had Hayata blinded by a monster attack but his eyes were restored at the end of the episode.

Where the Beta Capsule goes when Ultraman is active is not known, but during his first battle with Gomora ( Gohora in US version ) the Beta Capsule was somehow separated from him by a strong attack from the monster.

Arthur dies in the fifth installment of the book series, Mostly Harmless, in a club called Beta ( owned by Stavro Mueller ) when the Earth and all its duplicates are simultaneously destroyed by the Grebulons.

By 1883, when the United Chapters of Phi Beta Kappa was established, there were 25 chapters.

However, when he realises that Arthur has yet to cause his death at a place called Stavromula Beta, Agrajag discovered he took Arthur out of his relative timeline too soon, and that killing him now would cause a paradox but attempts to kill Arthur anyway.

Caution should be taken when using verapamil with a Beta blocker due to the risk of severe bradycardia.

valid when m > 0, Here the zeta function is Hurwitz zeta function and Beta is a positive real number.

This comes to a head when the two are out on a date and Beta discovers that a small group of Xandoxan spies have set up a communication center from their spaceship outside of the trailer park and are relaying information back to Xur.

But when the Xandoxans discover the pair and Beta is shot, exposing some of his damaged circuitry in the process, she realizes the truth.

Beta uses a nuclear reactor to superheat either air ( when flying in the lower, denser, part of the atmosphere ) or its own internal supply of methane ( in the higher reaches of the atmosphere and in space ) to achieve thrust.

Reinforcement of this belief occurred when Beta Israel, Ethiopia's ancient Israelite First Temple community, were rescued from Sudanese famine and brought to Israel during Operation Moses in 1985.

Pi Beta Phi became the first Greek letter organization to have a Canadian philanthropy in 1967 when, at the dual centennial of Canada and of Pi Beta Phi, the fraternity officially adopted the Northern Libraries Project to provide support for library systems in the Yukon and Northwest Territories.

A native of Millerton, New York, Collins was a graduate of Columbia University ( where he was a member of Beta Theta Pi Fraternity ), at a time when few Major League players had attended college.

Events on Thoros Beta after the Doctor's removal continue, as it is shown that Ycranos was placed in a time bubble by the Time Lords to hold his arrival back at the lab until after Kiv's mind was successfully transplanted into Peri ; when Ycranos is freed of the bubble, he is distraught at the results of the operation, and fires wildly, killing Peri.

The house system was first established in 1909, when there were three houses: Alpha, Beta and Gamma, each of which had a house master and captain.

Only one stellar occultation by Alkeste has been observed, when the asteroid passed in front of the third magnitude star Beta Virginis on June 24, 2003.

According to tradition the name " Beta Israel " originated in the 4th century when the community refused to convert to Christianity during the rule of Abreha and Atsbeha ( identified with Se ' azana and Ezana ), the monarchs of the Aksumite Empire who embraced Christianity.

* Nuclei that predominantly absorb neutrons and then emit Beta particle radiation lead to these isotopes, e. g., Th-232 absorbs a neutron and becomes Th-233 *, which emits a Beta particle and becomes Pa-233, which emits another Beta particle to become U-233.

Beta radiation, consisting of electron s or positron s, is halted by an aluminum plate.

* Electron capture detector ( ECD ), which uses a radioactive Beta particle ( electron ) source to measure the degree of electron capture.
