• May 24, 2026 Phet Alpha Decay instability: When a nucleus has too many protons or neutrons, it becomes energetically favorable to lose some via decay. - Quantum tunneling: The alpha particle pre-exists within the nucleus as a quantum state. It escapes through a potential energy barrier via tunneling—a quantum phenomenon whe By Ramon Jakubowski
