| 0 | (3-,2-) | 1.28 s 6 % β- = 0.05 5 % α = 99.95 5 | %α=99.9 and %β-=0.1 were deduced by 1949Wa05 from α intensities of 218At and 218Rn. These results are consistent with non-observation of α decay from 218Rn (β- daughter of 218At decay) in the study of 218At α decay by 2019Cu02. Theoretical partial T1/2>100 s for 218At β decay and (2019Mo01) gives %β-<1.3. |
2019Ba22: hyperfine-structure measurements for the 795-nm atomic transitions in 218At at CERN-ISOLDE, using the in-source resonance-ionization laser spectroscopy technique. The 218At source prepared in U(p,X),E=1.4 GeV reaction using UCx target. Deduced change in rms charge radius, isotope shift, magnetic moment and quadrupole moment
