A half life of 5 sec plus or minus 1 sec was found for the technetium daughter of the 11 minute molybdenum present in the fission products, whose probable mass number is 102. Absorption measurements show a maximum beta energy of 4.4 Mev plus or minus 0.3 Mev. From the absorption curves a half life of 11.5 min plus or minus 0.5 min is found for Mo/sup 102/. The Tc/sup 1045/ half life was found to be 10 min plus or minus 1 min through timed precipitations from a stock solution of fission technetium measurements of the Ru/ sup 105/ formed. Ru/sup 106/ as radioactive indicator was used to show the purity of technetium isolations or to avoid weighing when distilling ruthenium. Through technetium isolations from quickly purified fission-molybdenum, an upper limit of 2 minutes could be established for the half life of Mo/sup 1045/. No other technetium half lifes were found when milking from fission molybdenum. (auth)
