Text__xmrVAKOcEd-WfYQ0GneCwQ_text=<p>Particles leave different kinds of tracks in a cloud chamber.</p>  <ul><li>\u03B1-radiation consists of helium nuclei. Like protons, it is subject to nuclear forces and leaves short, thick tracks. <li>The electrons of \u03B2-radiation and muons leave narrow tracks. Electrons are scattered more often than the heavier muons and follow a zigzag path. <li>\u03B3-radiation consists of electrically neutral photons and does not leave any tracks in the cloud chamber.</ul>
