text: Since then beryllium mixed with an alpha emitter such as radium, plutonium, or americium has been used as a neutron source.
text: Beryllium is sometimes used in neutron sources, in which the beryllium is mixed with an alpha emitter such as 210Po, 226Ra, 239Pu or 241Am.
text: Beryllium is also commonly used in some neutron sources in laboratory devices in which relatively few neutrons are needed (rather than having to use a nuclear reactor, or a particle accelerator-powered neutron generator).
text: When exposed to alpha particles, such as those emitted by radium or polonium, beryllium emits neutrons and is used as a neutron source.
text: Since berylium has very low threshold energy for neutron emission, it can be used as a neutron source in nuclear reactors.
