Radioactivity | Vibepedia

Radioactivity is the process by which unstable atomic nuclei lose energy through radiation, with three main types of decay: alpha, beta, and gamma. This phenomenon is governed by the weak force, electromagnetic force, and nuclear force, and has a wide range of applications in fields like medicine, energy, and space exploration. Researchers like [[marie-curie|Marie Curie]] and [[ernest-rutherford|Ernest Rutherford]] have made significant contributions to our understanding of radioactivity, which has led to breakthroughs in [[nuclear-medicine|nuclear medicine]] and [[nuclear-energy|nuclear energy]].
