  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 ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_radioactive...

    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.

  5. Decay scheme - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decay_scheme

    The decay scheme of a radioactive substance is a graphical presentation of all the transitions occurring in a decay, and of their relationships. Examples are shown below. It is useful to think of the decay scheme as placed in a coordinate system, where the vertical axis is energy, increasing from bottom to top, and the horizontal axis is the proton number, increasing from left to right.

  7. List of elements by stability of isotopes - Wikipedia

    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 ...
