What is the basic mechanism for the emission of `beta^(-)` or `beta^(+)` particles in a nucleide? Give an example by writing explicity a decay process for `beta^(-)` emission. Is (a) the energy of the emitted `beta`-particles continuous or discrete,
the daughter nucleus obtained through `beta`-decay, an isotope or an isobar of the parent nucleus?
