Gamma particles are unaffected by magnetic fields because a neutral particle. Alpha particle is repelled by positive charge and attracted by negative charge while the beta particles are repelled by negative charge and attracted by the positive charge.
Its the gamma rays that can pass through the most dense materials, then comes beta and finally alpha. This is not related to your question but just thought it will be helpful.
