Hardness is achieved through adhering to appropriate design specifications and is verified by one or more test and analysis techniques. Nuclear Radiation " x, K6 m4 ]1 A2 sParticulate and electromagnetic radiation emitted from atomic nuclei in various , A! { L1 s4 X. K, ] r' [7 rnuclear processes. The important nuclear radiations, from the weapons standpoint, are alpha and beta particles, gamma rays, and neutrons. All nuclear 3 I/ }! d4 y& G# }: e1 d- \2 \radiations are ionizing radiations, but the reverse is not true; x-rays, for example, are included among ionizing radiations, but they are not nuclear radiations since they do not originate from atomic nuclei.
