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 high short-term radioactivity of spent nuclear fuel is primarily from fission products with short half-life.The radioactivity in the fission product mixture is mostly due to short-lived isotopes such as 131 I and 140 Ba, after about four months 141 Ce, 95 Zr/ 95 Nb and 89 Sr constitute the largest contributors, while after about two or three years the largest share is taken by 144 Ce/ 144 ...
The longest-lived radioisotope is 14 C, with a half-life of 5.70(3) × 10 3 years. This is also the only carbon radioisotope found in nature, as trace quantities are formed cosmogenically by the reaction 14 N + n → 14 C + 1 H. The most stable artificial radioisotope is 11 C, which has a half-life of 20.3402(53) min. All other radioisotopes ...

The longest-lived radioisotopes are 135 Cs with a half-life of 1.33 million years, 137 Cs with a half-life of 30.1671 years and 134 Cs with a half-life of 2.0652 years. [6] All other isotopes have half-lives less than 2 weeks, most under an hour.
129 I is one of the seven long-lived fission products that are produced in significant amounts. Its yield is 0.706% per fission of 235 U. [7] Larger proportions of other iodine isotopes such as 131 I are produced, but because these all have short half-lives, iodine in cooled spent nuclear fuel consists of about 5/6 129 I and 1/6 the only stable iodine isotope, 127 I.

The longest-lived radioisotope is 18 F; it has a half-life of 109.734(8) min. All other fluorine isotopes have half-lives of less than a minute, and most of those less than a second. The least stable known isotope is 14 F, whose half-life is 500(60) yoctoseconds, [4] corresponding to a resonance width of 910(100) keV.
