THE ALPHA HALF-LIFE OF PLUTONIUM-239

Journal Article · · J. Inorg. & Nuclear Chem.
Values for the alpha half life of Pu/sup 239 ranging from 24,000 sintering time 240 years to 24,400 sintering time 100 years are reported. The isotopic content of the plutonium used for the half life determination was as follows: 99.92% Pu/sup 239/, 0.072 sintering time 0.005% Pu and 0.003 sintering time 0.001% Pu/sup 241/ (J.H.M.)
