RadTown Radioactive Atom: Teacher Information | US EPA

Atoms are the basic building blocks of all matter. Ionizing radiation can come from unstable (radioactive) atoms or it can be produced by machines.

Radioactivity - ARPANSA

An atom is unstable (radioactive) if these forces are unbalanced; if the nucleus has an excess of internal energy. Instability of an atom's nucleus may result ...

Theory of Radioactivity - Radiation - ifp Berlin

Radioactivity is the property of unstable atomic nuclei to transform spontaneously. The process releases energy (usually by emitting ionizing radiation).
