Abstract
Half-lives of the extremely neutron-rich isotopes , , , , , , and were determined. The isotopes , and were identified for the first time and their half-lives measured. The values obtained, in seconds, are 0.72±0.07 for , 0.47±0.20 for and 1.2±0.4 for . The other measured half-lives either confirm or improve previous measurements. An extrapolation procedure based on the systematic behavior of experimental half-lives for the prediction of half-lives not yet measured was used. Similar systematic behavior is also apparent for half-lives predicted within the framework of the gross theory of decay.
