Is there a name or a term for this type of conversion in the c++ community? Has anyone seen this conversion be referred to as "implicit conversion"?

class ALPHA{};

class BETA{
    public:
        operator ALPHA(){return alpha;}
    private:
        ALPHA alpha;
};

void func(ALPHA alpha){}

int main(){
    BETA beta;
    func(beta);
    return 0;
}
