In nuclear physics, beta decay is a type of radioactive decay in which a beta particle is emitted from an atomic nucleus, transforming the original nuclide to an isobar of that nuclide

Answer:

In alpha decay, mass number of the nucleus decreases by 4 unit and atomic number is decreased by 2 unit. Alpha decay : ZAX→Z−2A−4Y+24He. When a parent nucleus emits an electron (beta particle) along with the daughter nucleus, then the nuclear reaction thus is called as beta decay.
