BS>Ru and Rh isotopes with mass numbers 107 and 108 and Rh/sup 109/ were obtained from fission products. Ru/sup 107/ was also prepared by the nuclear process Pd/sup 110/ (n, alpha ) Ru/sup 107/. Beta and gamma energies of these nuclides were studied spectrometrically and the gamma lines found for Ru/sup 107/ and Ru/sup 108/ (and daughter) were useful for the precise determination of their half lives. Rh/sup 109/ was identified through its daughter Pd/sup 109/ in the mixture of rhodium isotopes from fission products. lrradiation of natural paladium with fast neutrons led to an activity that may only be attributed to Rh/ sup 110/. Neither its half life nor its decay energy was determined accurately. (auth)
