* 第三讲 射线与物质的相互作用（2） Radiation Interactions with Matter 快电子与物质相互作用 A. Beta Decay /?衰变 The most common source of fast electron in radiation measurement is a radioisotope that decay by beta-minus emission. Where X, Y are the initial and final nuclear species. is the anti-neutrino Each species beta decay transition is characterized by a fixed decay energy or Q-value (beta endpoint energy Fig.1-1). The beta particle energy varies from decay to decay and can be range from zero to Q-value, see table 1-1. 1. Fast Electron Sources Table 1-1 Some “Pure” Beta-Minus Sources Nullide Half-li
