  2. Iridium-192 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iridium-192

    Iridium-192 (symbol 192 Ir) is a radioactive isotope of iridium, with a half-life of 73.827 days. [1] It decays by emitting beta (β) particles and gamma (γ) radiation. About 96% of 192 Ir decays occur via emission of β and γ radiation, leading to 192 Pt. Some of the β particles are captured by other 192 Ir nuclei, which are then converted ...

    Iridium-192 (symbol 192 Ir) is a radioactive isotope of iridium, with a half-life of 73.83 days. [11] It decays by emitting beta (β) particles and gamma (γ) radiation. About 96% of 192 Ir decays occur via emission of β and γ radiation, leading to 192 Pt. Some of the β particles are captured by other 192 Ir nuclei, which are then converted ...

    The automatic calculation of particle interaction or decay is part of the computational particle physics branch. It refers to computing tools that help calculating the complex particle interactions as studied in high-energy physics , astroparticle physics and cosmology .

  5. Iridium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iridium

    192 Ir, which falls between the two stable isotopes, is the most stable radioisotope, with a half-life of 73.827 days, and finds application in brachytherapy [28] and in industrial radiography, particularly for nondestructive testing of welds in steel in the oil and gas industries; iridium-192 sources have been involved in a number of ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_elements_by...

    Unstable isotopes decay through various radioactive decay pathways, most commonly alpha decay, beta decay, or electron capture. Many rare types of decay, such as spontaneous fission or cluster decay, are known. (See Radioactive decay for details.) [citation needed] Of the first 82 elements in the periodic table, 80 have isotopes considered to ...

  8. Radioactive source - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radioactive_source

    Radionuclides are chosen according to the type and character of the radiation they emit, intensity of emission, and the half-life of their decay. Common source radionuclides include cobalt-60, [1] iridium-192, [2] and strontium-90. [3]

  9. Decay correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decay_correction

    The decay correct might be used this way: a group of 20 animals is injected with a compound of interest on a Monday at 10:00 a.m. The compound is chemically joined to the isotope copper-64, which has a known half-life of 12.7 hours, or 764 minutes.
