during beta decay why electron is emitted from nucleus.

Question

anonymous · Answer

since nucleus is composed of only protons and neutrons how an electron takes birth in nucleus during decay processes.

souvik · Answer

in the case of beta decay..a neutron is transferred to an electron and a proton and an anti neutrino...

anonymous · Answer

neutron is charge less and electron is a charged quantity. but how can an neutron transfer into electron. 
I mean a charge less quantity in to charged one.

souvik · Answer

a neutron has no charge..and electron and proton have same charge in magnitude but different signs...
neutron(no charge)$\rightarrow $ proton(+ve charge)+electron(-ve charge)
so charge is balanced in both sides...

souvik · Answer

thats why after a beta emission the number of proton in radioactive atom is increased by one

anonymous · Answer

Artificially can we combine proton and electron to make neutron ?

anonymous · Answer

some times during radio ionization a proton absorbs electron and transforms in to neutron. can we cause this type of effect artificially.

sorry i have no clue about it....
