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.
Compared with solar xenon, Earth's atmospheric Xe is enriched in heavy isotopes by 3 to 4% per atomic mass unit (amu). [18] However, the total abundance of xenon gas is depleted by one order of magnitude relative to other noble gases. [15] The elemental depletion while relative enrichment in heavy isotopes is called the "Xenon paradox".
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.
The first binary noble gas compounds were reported later in 1962. Bartlett synthesized xenon tetrafluoride (XeF 4) by subjecting a mixture of xenon and fluorine to high temperature. [9] Rudolf Hoppe, among other groups, synthesized xenon difluoride (XeF 2) by the reaction of the elements. [10]
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 ...
Radioactive isotope table "lists ALL radioactive nuclei with a half-life greater than 1000 years", incorporated in the list above. The NUBASE2020 evaluation of nuclear physics properties F.G. Kondev et al. 2021 Chinese Phys. C 45 030001. The PDF of this article lists the half-lives of all known radioactives 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.
It contains a table of main isotopes and eventually the standard atomic weight. This template is reused in {{Infobox <element>}} as a child Infobox (|child=yes). As of Jan 2023, a 'Main isotope' is conforming MOS:MAINISOTOPE (under construction, see WP:ELEMENTS What is a "Main_isotope"?) Each isotope has its own row, with decay modes:
