Atomic radiation

i·on·iz·ing radiation (

-n

ng)

High-energy radiation capable of producing ionization in substances through which it passes. It includes nonparticulate radiation, such as x-rays, and radiation produced by energetic charged particles, such as alpha and beta rays, and by neutrons, as from a nuclear reaction.

ionizing radiation

(Physics / General Physics) electromagnetic or corpuscular radiation that is able to cause ionization

Noun

ionizing radiation - high-energy radiation capable of producing ionization in substances through which it passes

alpha radiation, alpha ray - the radiation of alpha particles during radioactive decay

beta radiation, beta ray, electron radiation - radiation of beta particles during radioactive decay

cosmic ray - highly penetrating ionizing radiation of extraterrestrial origin; consisting chiefly of protons and alpha particles; collision with atmospheric particles results in rays and particles of many kinds

neutron radiation - radiation of neutrons (as by a neutron bomb)

radiation - energy that is radiated or transmitted in the form of rays or waves or particles

roentgen ray, X ray, X-radiation, X-ray - electromagnetic radiation of short wavelength produced when high-speed electrons strike a solid target
