    (1) alpha is your answer. The alpha particle is a Helium nucleus, with two protons and two neutrons. Therefore its larger than the positron or the neutron (because positrons have around the same mass as the proton, being its anti-particle). The beta particle is just the electron, in which the proton is way more massive than the electron.
