Input interpretation
Cs-117 | half-life
Result
8.4 seconds (6.8 to 10 s)
Decay properties
half-life | 8.4 seconds (6.9 to 9.9 s) mean lifetime | 12 seconds (11.2 to 13 s) decay constant | 0.083 per second specific activity | 4.3×10^8 TBq/g (terabecquerels per gram) width | 5.4×10^-17 eV (electronvolts) decay modes | β^+ (positron emission) final decay products | Sn-117 (100%) | Sn-116 (2.9×10^-5)
Comparison as half-life
≈ ( 0.028 ≈ 1/36 ) × half-life of uranium-241 ( ≈ 300 s )
