Title: Chart of Nuclides Question: Please help
Post by: Zorro1 on Mar 08, 2016, 02:35

one square on the chart of nuclides will list the modes of decay and then right to that symbol it will list the energy. But sometimes there is also a capital "E-","E+", or "E" at the bottom of the square (in addition) which ALSO references an energy.  WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE between these two energy references???
