  • Hewitt begins with X rays and their nature.
  • Three types of radiation.
  • Alpha (helium nuclei) Beta (electrons) Gamma (electromagnetic)
  • Why atoms are radioactive.
  • Strong nuclear interaction.
  • Neutrons as nuclear cement.
  • Why a nucleus cannot be too big and be stable.
  • Nuclear nomenclature: Helium Lithium Uranium
  • Isotopes defined.
  • Source of earth's heat.
  • Uranium-series to lead.
  • Radioactive half-life defined.
  • Nuclear transmutation defined.
  • Nuclear reactions: Uranium and alpha emission Thorium and alpha Beta emission
  • Rutherford's historic transmutation experiment.
