Source sentences:
text: Tritium emits electrons through beta decay and, when they interact with a phosphor material, light is emitted through the process of phosphorescence.
text: Tritium emits electrons through beta decay and, when they interact with a phosphor material, light is emitted through the process of phosphorescence.
text: Tritium is hydrogen’s radioactive isotope, and it emits electrons due to radioactive decay, causing the phosphor to glow.
text: My understanding of how they work is that tritium undergoes beta decay, emitting electrons that excite a phosphorescent coating on the inside of a tritium-filled tube, producing light.
