Difference between Induced radioactivity and Neutron activation

Induced radioactivity vs. Neutron activation

Induced radioactivity occurs when a previously stable material has been made radioactive by exposure to specific radiation. Neutron activation is the process in which neutron radiation induces radioactivity in materials, and occurs when atomic nuclei capture free neutrons, becoming heavier and entering excited states.

Similarities between Induced radioactivity and Neutron activation

Induced radioactivity and Neutron activation have 11 things in common (in Unionpedia): Atomic nucleus, Beta particle, Cobalt, Gamma ray, Neutron, Neutron flux, Neutron radiation, Neutron temperature, Nuclear reactor, Radioactive decay, Radioactive waste.

Atomic nucleus

The atomic nucleus is the small, dense region consisting of protons and neutrons at the center of an atom, discovered in 1911 by Ernest Rutherford based on the 1909 Geiger–Marsden gold foil experiment.

Beta particle

A beta particle, also called beta ray or beta radiation, (symbol β) is a high-energy, high-speed electron or positron emitted by the radioactive decay of an atomic nucleus during the process of beta decay.

Radioactive decay

Radioactive decay (also known as nuclear decay or radioactivity) is the process by which an unstable atomic nucleus loses energy (in terms of mass in its rest frame) by emitting radiation, such as an alpha particle, beta particle with neutrino or only a neutrino in the case of electron capture, gamma ray, or electron in the case of internal conversion.
