Tin-121m (121m Sn) is a radioisotope and nuclear isomer of tin with a half-life of 43.9 years. In a normal thermal reactor, it has a very low fission product yield; thus, this isotope is not a significant contributor to nuclear waste. Fast fission or fission of some heavier actinides will produce tin-121 at higher yields. For example, its yield ...
