Precise Half-Life Measurement of the Superallowed Beta+ Emitter 46V
H. I. Park, J. C. Hardy, V. E. Iacob +6
The half-life of 46V has been measured to be 422.66(6) ms, which is a factor of two more precise than the best previous measurement. Our result is also consistent with the previous…
Do radioactive half-lives vary with the Earth-to-Sun distance?
J. C. Hardy, J. R. Goodwin, V. E. Iacob
Recently, Jenkins, Fischbach and collaborators have claimed evidence that radioactive half-lives vary systematically over a +/- 0.1% range as a function of the oscillating distance…
Measurement of the half-life of 198Au in a non-metal: High-precision measurement shows no host-material dependence
J. R. Goodwin, N. Nica, V. E. Iacob +2
We have measured the half-life of the beta decay of 198Au to be 2.6948(9) d, with the nuclide sited in an insulating environment. Comparing this result with the half-life we measur…
Precise Half-Life Measurement of the Superallowed Beta+ Emitter 26Si
V. E. Iacob, J. C. Hardy, A. Banu +8
We have measured the half-life of the superallowed 0+ -to- 0+ beta+ emitter 26Si to be 2245.3(7) ms. We used pure sources of 26Si and employed a high-efficiency gas counter, which…
Half-life of the electron-capture decay of 97Ru: Precision measurement shows no temperature dependence
J. R. Goodwin, V. V. Golovko, V. E. Iacob +1
We have measured the half-life of the electron-capture (ec) decay of 97Ru in a metallic environment, both at low temperature (19K), and also at room temperature. We find the half-l…
Branching ratios for the beta decay of 21Na
V. E. Iacob, J. C. Hardy, C. A. Gagliardi +8
We have measured the beta-decay branching ratio for the transition from 21Na to the first excited state of 21Ne. A recently published test of the standard model, which was based on…
