Naturally occurring xenon (54 Xe) consists of seven stable isotopes and two very long-lived isotopes. Double electron capture has been observed in 124 Xe (half-life 1.8 ± 0.5(stat) ± 0.1(sys) × 10 22 years) [2] and double beta decay in 136 Xe (half-life 2.165 ± 0.016(stat) ± 0.059(sys) × 10 21 years), [7] which are among the longest measured half-lives of all nuclides.
No isotopes known, Isobox does not exist: local input, per Infobox. For example: Transclusion of the isobox is suppressed (no redlink), E119: |theoretical isotopes comment=Experiments and theoretical calculations Applied: E119 and up: have no Isobox, so no isotopes lists is shown—at all. Instead, the parametertext is shown as present.
The darker more stable isotope region departs from the line of protons (Z) = neutrons (N), as the element number Z becomes larger. This is a list of chemical elements by the stability of their isotopes. Of the first 82 elements in the periodic table, 80 have isotopes considered to be stable. [1] Overall, there are 251 known stable isotopes in ...
Consistent with this classification, Kr, Xe, and Rn form compounds that can be isolated in bulk at or near standard temperature and pressure, whereas He, Ne, Ar have been observed to form true chemical bonds using spectroscopic techniques, but only when frozen into a noble gas matrix at temperatures of 40 K (−233 °C; −388 °F) or lower, in ...
Xenon isotope geochemistry uses the abundance of xenon (Xe) isotopes and total xenon to investigate how Xe has been generated, transported, fractionated, and distributed in planetary systems. Xe has nine stable or very long-lived isotopes. Radiogenic 129 Xe and fissiogenic 131,132,134,136 Xe isotopes are of special interest in geochemical ...
The stable isotope xenon-132 has a fission product yield of over 4% in the thermal neutron fission of 235 U which means that stable or nearly stable xenon isotopes have a higher mass fraction in spent nuclear fuel (which is about 3% fission products) than it does in air.
[1] [2] 129 Xe is a stable, naturally occurring isotope of xenon with 26.44% isotope abundance. It is one of two Xe isotopes, along with 131 Xe, that has non-zero spin, which allows for magnetic resonance. 129 Xe is used for MRI because its large electron cloud permits hyperpolarization and a wide range of chemical shifts.
An isotopic signature (also isotopic fingerprint) is a ratio of non-radiogenic 'stable isotopes', stable radiogenic isotopes, or unstable radioactive isotopes of particular elements in an investigated material. The ratios of isotopes in a sample material are measured by isotope-ratio mass spectrometry against an isotopic reference material.
