Spontaneous-fission properties and production of heavy-element isotopes
Abstract
Spontaneous fission was discovered in /sup 238/U as a natural mode of decay as long ago as 1940. However, because of the long spontaneous-fission half-life of /sup 238/U of about 10/sup 16/ years, the decay rate (specific activity) was so low that detailed studies of the properties of spontaneous fission had to await the synthesis of isotopes of higher Z elements with shorter spontaneous-fission half-lives. During the 1960s, milligram quantities...
