C. E. Bemis,R.J. Silva,D. C. Hensley,O.L. Keller,J.R. Tarrant,L. D. Hunt,Peter F. Dittner,R. L. Hahn,C.D. Goodman +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the daughter x-ray identification technique has been applied to the identification of element 104 using the characteristic $K$-series x rays from the ε-decay daughter isotope, nobelium ($Z=102$).
Journal ArticleDOI
Production, L x-ray identification, and decay of the nuclide /sup 260/105
TL;DR: In this article, the decay properties of the nuclide $260}105$ have been investigated in the reaction and its decay properties investigated, and an upper bound of 2.5% to be placed on the electron-capture decay branch of $260]105$ to the elusive Nuclide 0.2%.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of the atomic number of nobelium by an x-ray technique.
Journal ArticleDOI
The new nuclide nobelium-259
R.J. Silva,P.F. Dittner,M. L. Mallory,O.L. Keller,K.J. Eskola,P. Eskola,Matti Nurmia,A. Ghiorso +7 more
TL;DR: A new relatively long-lived isotope of element 102 has been produced through the bombardment of 248 Cm with 18 O ions at both Oak Ridge and Berkeley as discussed by the authors, and a total half-life of 58 ± 5 min was computed from the combined data of both laboratories.
Journal ArticleDOI
Determination of the NO(II)NO(III) potential from tracer experiments
TL;DR: In this paper, the standard oxidation potential of the No(II)No(III) couple in aqueous solution was estimated from the average behavior observed during repetitive series of experiments with 50-100 atoms per experiment.
