β−decay occurs as ‌ZAX⟶‌Z+1AY+‌−10β+v Most of the decay energy is carried by both emitted electron β−and antineutrino ( v ). So, β−- particles emerges with varrying energies and energy spectrum of emitted β−is as shown;
If there are no antineutrinos, energy is carried mainly by β−- particles, so energy spectrum will be
