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.
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 ...
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.
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 ...
A significant amount of zirconium is formed by the fission process; some of this consists of short-lived radionuclides (95 Zr and 97 Zr which decay to molybdenum), while almost 10% of the fission products mixture after years of decay consists of five stable or nearly stable isotopes of zirconium plus 93 Zr with a halflife of 1.53 million years ...
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. [1]
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]
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 }} .
