General Comments:

Mass measurement: 2018Zh29 (mass excess=-34477 6, also 2017Zh12)

Other measurements:

1977Tr05: identification of 50Fe: 54Fe(α,8He),E=110 MeV; measured particle spectra; deduced mass excess of 50Fe

1994Bl10, 2002Pf03: production and identification of 50Fe isotope 9Be(58Ni,X) at 650 MeV/nucleon, GSI facility.

1997Ko46: 50Fe decay properties investigated. 50Fe activity produced by beam: 51 MeV 12C, target: natural Ca 1.6 mg/cm2 at Chalk River TASCC facility. Beta rays detected by plastic counters, gamma rays by HPGe 40%, beta-gamma coincidences observed. First measurement of isotopic half-life.

2015Mo01: 50Fe ions were produced from fragmentation of 680 MeV/nucleon 58Ni beam with 400 mg/cm2 9Be target using SIS-18 synchrotron at GSI facility. Reaction fragments were separated in-flight using the fragment separator FRS. The identification of nuclei was achieved by measurement of magnetic rigidity and velocity of fragments from time-of-flight method. Separated ions were implanted in one of six double-sided silicon strip detectors (DSSSDs). The β-decay signals were detected in the same DSSSD. Surrounding the implantation setup was the RISING array of 15 Euroball cluster detectors for γ detection. Measured half-life of 50Fe decay

2017Ku12: 50Fe isotope produced in the fragmentation of 79 MeV/nucleon 64Zn29+ beam with Ni target of 236 mg/cm2 thickness. Fragments were selected with the LISE3 separator at GANIL and identified by time-of-flight and energy loss using silicon ΔE detector and implanted into a double-sided silicon strip detector (DSSSD). The implanted ions and charged-particle decays were detected by the DSSSD, which was surrounded by four HPGe clover detectors (three EXOGAM clovers and a smaller Euroball clover) for γ-ray detection. Half-life of 50Fe decay was measured by (50Fe implants)β time-correlated decay events. Total number of 50Fe implanted ions=1.35×104

Q-value: Q(β-) deduced using mass excess=-17585 41 for 50Co from IMME analysis (2007Do17). Other: Q(β-)=-16850 400 (syst, 2017Wa10).

Q-value: Q(εp)=3568 9, S(2n)=32620 400 (syst), S(2p)=6232 11 (2017Wa10).
