beta
decay,.noun,.plural..(radiation)
beta decay
is a heavy particle converting
into a lighter one; this radioactive decay consists of the emission
of electrons (that occur
when an atom ejects an electron
from its nucleus), known
as beta particles and the emission known as beta radiation,
the disintegration of the
nucleus of an atom to produce a beta particle; this decay is accompanied
by the emission of a neutrino
(high speed electron) and an anti neutrino. Beta decay is governed by the
weak force. During the process of decay a neutron
changes (a neutron in the nucleus changes into a proton,
a new element) is formed as the
atom transmutes), thereby increasing
the atomic number by one,
while the mass remains about the same.
Any mass lost in the process is converted to movement (kinetic
energy) of the beta particle. (see also 'alpha
particles')

the
first ten amendments to the Constitution
of the United States. The Bill of Rights establishes basic American
liberties that the government cannot violate.
The American states ratified
the Bill of Rights
in 1791, three years after the Constitution was ratified. Originally the
Bill
of Rights applied only to the federal government, but in a series of
20th-century cases, the Supreme Court decided that most of its provisions
would also apply to the states. The people were not consulted. Many countries
have used the Bill of Rights as a model for defining liberties of
mean and women in their constitutions.
The Bill of Rights includes a wide range
of protections with a common theme and purpose, that of to define
the scope of individual freedom in the United States and to make
the political system more democratic.....comprised
