Most residential smoke
detectors contain a low-activity americium-241 source.
Alpha particles emitted by the americium ionize the air,
make the air conductive. Any smoke particles that
enter the unit reduce the current and set off the alarm.

devices save lives, the question "are smoke detectors
safe?" is still asked by those with an inordinate fear of
radiation. The answer, of course, is "yes, they are
safe". | |
