Types of Ionizing Radiation

There are many types of ionizing radiation. However, the following are the most common:

  • Alpha particles
  • Beta particles
  • Neutron radiation
  • Gamma rays and X-rays

All types of ionizing radiation are a result of unstable atoms having either an excess of energy or mass or both. They must release the extra energy or mass in the form of radiation to reach a stable state.
