Half-life of /sup 148/Gd

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. C; (United States)
Gadolinium isotopes were separated from a tantalum target which had been irradiated with 800-MeV protons. The concentrations of /sup 148/Gd in weighed aliquots of a solution of the isotopes were determined by isotope dilution mass spectrometry. Other aliquots were counted on a low geometry alpha counter to determine the disintegration rate of /sup 148/Gd per unit weight of soulution. From the data obtained the half-life of the isotope was found to be 74.6 +- 3.0 yr.
