A nuclear reaction given by zXA→z+1YA+−1e0+vˉ{ }_z \mathrm{X}^{\mathrm{A}} \rightarrow{ }_{z+1} \mathrm{Y}^{\mathrm{A}}+-1^{e^0}+\bar{v} represents:

Options

  1. Aβ\beta-decay
  2. Bγ\gamma-decay
  3. Cfusion
  4. Dfission

Correct answer

A. β\beta-decay

Step-by-step solution

Emission of electron (\left(\mathrm{e}^{-}\right)+)antineutrino (\left(\gamma^{-}\right)) (\Rightarrow \beta)-decay.
