The process of radioactivity emits both alpha (a) and beta (b) particles from the radioactive nuclei. These emissions, however, could not completely calm the nuclei. Therefore, the nuclei remain in states of excitation. The subsequent emissions of gamma (g) radiation do return some nuclei back to the ground state of zero-point energies. These imply the sequential steps of emission as a-b-g and not a-g-b nor b-a-g nor b-g-a nor g-a-b nor g-b-a. The first has a probability almost unity. The others remain unknown to experimental verifications. However, these indicate that the process of de-excitation is an exponential decay of mass reduction or pure energy production toward a non-interactive vacuum by ignoring its quantum fluctuations.
