Radium (88 Ra) has no stable or nearly stable isotopes, and thus a standard atomic weight cannot be given. The longest lived, and most common, isotope of radium is 226 Ra with a half-life of 1600 years. 226 Ra occurs in the decay chain of 238 U (often referred to as the radium series). Radium has 34 known isotopes from 201 Ra to 234 Ra.
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.
This page uses the meta infobox {{Infobox isotopes (meta)}} for the element isotopes infobox.. This infobox contains the table of § Main isotopes, and the § Standard atomic weight.
Pages in category "Isotopes of radium" The following 59 pages are in this category, out of 59 total. This list may not reflect recent changes. ...
As of 7 Jan 2023, the "Main isotopes of <element>" tabular list will be read directly from the Isobox: "Infobox <element> isotopes". For example, {{ Infobox uranium }} will read the table live from {{ Infobox uranium isotopes }} .
Another notable example is the only naturally occurring isotope of bismuth, bismuth-209, which has been predicted to be unstable with a very long half-life, but has been observed to decay. Because of their long half-lives, such isotopes are still found on Earth in various quantities, and together with the stable isotopes they are called ...
They have shorter half-lives than primordial radionuclides. They arise in the decay chain of the primordial isotopes thorium-232, uranium-238, and uranium-235. Examples include the natural isotopes of polonium and radium. Cosmogenic isotopes, such as carbon-14, are present because they are continually being formed in the atmosphere due to ...
This list of nuclides shows observed nuclides that either are stable or, if radioactive, have half-lives longer than one hour. This represents isotopes of the first 105 elements, except for elements 87 ( francium ), 102 ( nobelium ) and 104 ( rutherfordium ).
