| 41. | The alpha particles reheat the plasma while the energy of the neutrons can be extracted.
|
| 42. | Polonium is dangerous both as an alpha particle emitter and because it is chemically toxic.

|
| 45. | His thesis was on column ionization of alpha particles.
|
| 46. | Each impact of an alpha particle on the screen produced a tiny flash of light.
|
| 47. | Ernest Rutherford discovered the alpha particle and also developed the nuclear theory of atomic structure.
