Theoretically, wouldn't it be possible to bombard a proton with an

doing, render the material radioactive?
In that case, would it be possible to generate said electrons with the
photoelectric effect?
Peace... Sridhar
And with so
much radiation being shot onto metals and like, does it
became radioactive?
I have some MSX here that I want to "give it a shot" (pun intended)
hehehe
Remeber- two types of radiation: particle (Alpha, Beta, neutrons,
protons) and electromagnetic (gamma, X-ray, radio, light, etc). The
particles can make things radioactive, the electromagnetic radiation
cannot.
