Nuclear Radiation Particulate 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, 6 G9 Y8 s9 {5 a( o( ]3 w W9 h c% jare included among ionizing radiations, but they are not nuclear radiations since , e% j" P) z) c& Pthey do not originate from atomic nuclei.
