I agreed with the rest, but ... WHAT ?
Alpha and Beta aren't EM, right, there are He-Nucleus and Electron-Positron. But, apart from Gamma and Microwaves ... waves used for radio are radiations. Light is radiation (I mean the one you can see). Unless I'm mistaking because of some english terms, Microwaves mean "lower frequency than Infra Reds" (and higher than some others, but we don't care), and Gamma is "Higher than X-ray" ... so there are still plenthy of radiations between [and I'm only talking of light]
Especially assuming that, according to Quantum Physic, every single body has a wave-function, which means everything is a radiation ... (even if we don't care for something like a human, a planet or a car, but that means Neutrons are radiations, even if you don't use to call these like that).
As for new machine, Molten Salt reactors could be (GT here ... ^^), but these wouldn't be as fun (as the only thing that act on their efficiency is the concentration of Thorium in).
Damn, got Microwaves and Xrays consumed. Although "Radiation" covers all forms of EM Waves in Physics, it doesnt in Chemistry. Definitions are pretty loose.
Yes Alpha particles are infact identicle to a Helium Nucleus, but with extremely high energy, hence why they are horrible for you. Still not as bad as Oxygen.
How the fuck do i know this stuff im only 14
