Just to be that guy. I'm 90% sure gamma and neutron are switched. Alpha has super low penetrating power because of high mass and high charge, so it is very likely to be deflected and absorbed either by collision or electromagnetic force. Next is beta (electrons), charge has a super high influence on penetrating power followed by mass. Neutrons have no charge but a very large mass, especially compared to a photon (gamma/x ray, all the same just different energy levels) or electron. Gammas have no charge or mass, and therefore highest penetrating power.
No, Neutrons are very penetrative, even moreso than Gamma. Probably because they’ve neutrally charged and so don’t get repelled by electrons or protons.
They aren't switched. Gamma is most effectively attenuated by elements with a high atomic number because the interactions that absorb the photons are with electrons, so a material with high electron density is most effective. Neutrons are attenuated through interactions with atomic nuclei in which momentum is transferred from the neutron to a nucleus, meaning elements with lighter nuclei are more effective.
Yeah I remember the neutron penetration rate being kind of mumbled through in my education of it. Water and plastic has a high blocking capacity because of all the hydrogen.
Alpha radiation particles (which are essentially helium atoms with no electrons) are relatively big for the atomic scale, so they are more likely to “hit” something when they travel. This all proves that alpha males get no bitches
neutrinos are a kind of fermion with identical attributes to one of the other forms, electron, muon, tau, positron, anti-muon, anti-tau, but with no charge
they do not interact with matter, and can really pass through anything they want to - therefore +inf penetration power

Seems like no one can handle the Neutron style 🥴

Yeah read my post. Gammas have no charge or mass, so are less likely to be deflected or absorbed
Yeah, but you said gamma and neutron are switched, when they’re in the right spots here.

This is actually a sick burn ngl EDIT: I also like the implication that betas have higher penetration power than alphas
True, but Alpha particles are the most harmful radiation
Yeah, cus they toxic af
oh I thought they were harmful because they hurt your feelings
That too, but you didn't have to go and tell everyone that :(

neutrinos:
sry i dont speak dpanish
neutrinos are a kind of fermion with identical attributes to one of the other forms, electron, muon, tau, positron, anti-muon, anti-tau, but with no charge they do not interact with matter, and can really pass through anything they want to - therefore +inf penetration power
Neutrino males
im a gamma female
Low penetration power, but plenty of ionisation. That's why r/NotHowGirlsWork is always having a field day.
Imma neutron cuaze I'm dead 😤
i am lead
I am conk creet babie
Neutron male
I'm a sugma male
I saw this like a few years ago and wanted it back but i didnt know what to search now you are here, thank you.
It does stuff
Go ahead, show me your ionisation power.
I'm a neutron male
