Alpha-particle Spectroscopy

Alpha-Particle Spectroscopy is a nuclear analytical technique that identifies and quantifies radioactive isotopes by measuring the discrete energy spectrum of alpha particles emitted during alpha decay, distinguishing it from other radiation detection methods through its high energy resolution and specificity to alpha-emitting nuclides.
