Gold-198 (198 Au) is a radioactive isotope of gold. It undergoes beta decay to stable 198 Hg with a half-life of 2.69464 days. The decay properties of 198 Au have led to widespread interest in its potential use in radiotherapy for cancer treatments. This isotope has also found use in nuclear weapons research and as a radioactive tracer in ...
Gold is currently considered the heaviest monoisotopic element. Bismuth formerly held that distinction until alpha-decay of the 209 Bi isotope was observed. All isotopes of gold are either radioactive or, in the case of 197 Au, observationally stable, meaning that 197 Au is predicted to be radioactive but no actual decay has been observed. [4]

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.
This page lists radioactive nuclides by their half-life.
A chart or table of nuclides maps the nuclear, or radioactive, behavior of nuclides, as it distinguishes the isotopes of an element.It contrasts with a periodic table, which only maps their chemical behavior, since isotopes (nuclides that are variants of the same element) do not differ chemically to any significant degree, with the exception of hydrogen.

The decay scheme of a radioactive substance is a graphical presentation of all the transitions occurring in a decay, and of their relationships. Examples are shown below. It is useful to think of the decay scheme as placed in a coordinate system, where the vertical axis is energy, increasing from bottom to top, and the horizontal axis is the proton number, increasing from left to right.
