Carbon (6 C) has 14 known isotopes, from 8 C to 20 C as well as 22 C, of which 12 C and 13 C are stable.The longest-lived radioisotope is 14 C, with a half-life of 5.70(3) × 10 3 years. . This is also the only carbon radioisotope found in nature, as trace quantities are formed cosmogenically by the reactio
This is a list of radioactive nuclides (sometimes also called isotopes), ordered by half-life from shortest to longest, in seconds, minutes, hours, days and years. Current methods make it difficult to measure half-lives between approximately 10 −19 and 10 −10 seconds.
At least 3,300 nuclides have been experimentally characterized [1] (see List of radioactive nuclides by half-life for the nuclides with decay half-lives less than one hour). A nuclide is defined conventionally as an experimentally examined bound collection of protons and neutrons that either is stable or has an observed decay mode .
Radioactive isotopes are isotopes that will decay into a different isotope. For example, 3 H is a radioactive isotope of hydrogen. It decays into 3 He with a half-life of ~12.3 years. By comparison, stable isotopes do not undergo radioactive decay, and their fixed proportions are measured against exponentially decaying proportions of ...

Releases of man-made radioactive materials which occur during an industrial or research accident. For instance the Chernobyl accident. Releases which occur as a result of military activity. For example, a nuclear weapons test, which have caused a global fallout, peaking in 1963 (the Bomb pulse), and up to 2.4 million deaths by 2020. [5]
