Ex. “This is an example of what type of nuclear reaction: 126/50 Sn -> 126/51 Sb”
I thought it was fusion since the atomic number increased, but it was actually beta- emission with a neutron turning into a proton and electron/e- neutrino pair.
How do you correctly identify beta emission reactions given a description like $^{126}_{50}\text{Sn}\rightarrow^{126}_{51}\text{Sb}$?
