NEW VALUES FOR HALF-LIVES OF Cs$sup 137$ AND Co$sup 60$ NUCLIDES

Journal Article · · Nucleonics (U.S.) Ceased publication
OSTI ID:4732693
Measurement of the long half life of Cs/sup 137/ as well as that of Co/ sup 60/ is made by determining the ratio of Cs/sup 137/ and Co/sup 60/ activity to the activity of a radium source. Data give half lives of 29.68 plus or minus 0.05 yr and 5.263 plus or minus 0.003 yr, respectively, for Cs/sup 137/ and Co/sup 60/. (D.C.W.)
