Hardness is achieved through adhering to appropriate design specifications and is verified by one or more test and analysis techniques. Nuclear Radiation 2 Z! w4 J' f2 L$ `5 ?/ RParticulate and electromagnetic radiation emitted from atomic nuclei in various nuclear processes. The important nuclear radiations, from the weapons standpoint, are alpha and beta particles, gamma rays, and neutrons. All nuclear 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. (See Ionizing Radiation and X-Rays.)
