Dane particle an intact hepatitis B virion.

elementary particle any of the subatomic particles, including electrons, protons, neutrons, positrons, neutrinos, and muons.

particle,

n a small amount of material.

particle, alpha,

n (alpha ray, alpha radiation) a positively charged particulate ionizing radiation consisting of helium nuclei (two protons and two neutrons) traveling at high speeds. These rays are emitted from the nucleus of an unstable element.

particle, beta,

n (beta ray, beta radiation) a particulate ionizing radiation consisting of either negative electrons (negatrons) or positive electrons (positrons) emitted from the nucleus of an unstable element. This phenomenon is called
beta decay.

particle

an extremely small mass of material. See also alpha particles and beta particle.

elementary particle

any of the subatomic particles, including electrons, protons, neutrons, positrons, neutrinos and muons.
