High Precision Half‑Life Measurement of the Extinct Radio‑Lanthanide Dysprosium-154

Abstract: Sixty years after the discovery of 154Dy, the half-life of this pure alpha-emitter was re-measured. 154Dy was radiochemically separated from proton-irradiated tantalum samples. Sector field- and multicollector-inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry were used to determine the amount of 154Dy retrieved. The disintegration rate of the radio-lanthanide was measured by means of α-spectrometry. The half-life value was determined as (1.33 ± 0.07)∙106 y, with an uncertainty reduced by a factor of ~10 compared to… Show more
