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 ' z* @* V1 U3 G- {6 jthey do not originate from atomic nuclei. (See Ionizing Radiation and X-Rays.)
