Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
Alpha particle is an electrically positive charge particle, so it produces a magnetic field around it on the vertical plane, but neutrons have no charge, so it doesn't produce a magnetic field. Alpha particles, also called alpha rays or alpha radiation, consist of two protons and two neutrons bound together into a particle identical to a helium-4 nucleus.
