The release of a W boson through beta decay, which is to say, can it be induced?

Thanks for the reply! One question: can this be reproduced in a lab?

In beta decay, is the W boson created by the change of a quark or does it cause the change? Also, I don't fully understand where the W bosons come from or how they are created. If someone could please explain this to me, I'm very confused.
