Decay Characteristics of Some Short-Lived Nuclides of Low Atomic Number

Abstract

The short-lived activities in ${\mathrm{Cl}}^{34}$, ${\mathrm{K}}^{38}$, ${\mathrm{Ca}}^{39}$, ${\mathrm{Li}}^{8}$, ${\mathrm{He}}^{6}$, and ${\mathrm{O}}^{15}$ formed by high-energy bremsstrahlung irradiation have been examined, and some improved values for the half-lives of these nuclides are reported.
