/sup 218/Po half-life

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. C; (United States)
; ; ; ;
The half-life of /sup 218/Po has been measured to be 3.11 +- 0.02 min by selectively detecting the 6.00-MeV alpha decay branch to the ground state. Alpha branches from other radioactive daughters were discriminated against by using pulse height analysis techniques.
