The half-life of the neutron-rich nuclide, {fesixty} has been in dispute in recent years. A measurement in 2009 published a value of $(2.62 pm 0.04)times10^{6}$ years, almost twice that of the previously accepted value from 1984 of $(1.49 pm 0.27)times10^{6}$ years. This longer half-life was confirmed in 2015 by a second measurement, resulting in a value of $(2.50 pm 0.12)times10^{6}$ years. All three half-life measurements used the grow-in of the $gamma$-ray lines in { isixty} from the decay of the ground state of $^{60}text{Co}$ (t$_{1/2}$=5.27 years) to determine the activity of a sample with a known number of {fesixty} atoms. In contrast, the work presented here measured the {fesixty} activity directly via the 58.6 keV $gamma$-ray line from the short-lived isomeric state of $^{60}text{Co}$ (t$_{1/2}$=10.5 minutes), thus being independent of any possible contamination from long-lived $^{60text{g}}text{Co}$. A fraction of the material from the 2015 experiment with a known number of {fesixty} atoms was used for the activity measurement, resulting in a half-life value of $(2.72 pm 0.16)times10^{6}$ years, confirming again the longer half-life. In addition, {fesixty}/{fe} isotopic ratios of samples with two different dilutions of this material were measured with Accelerator Mass Spectrometry (AMS) to determine the number of {fesixty} atoms. Combining this with our activity measurement resulted in a half-life value of $(2.69 pm 0.28)times 10^{6}$ years, again agreeing with the longer half-life.
The half-life of tsups{37}K has been measured to be $1.23651(94)~mathrm{s}$, a value nearly an order of magnitude more precise than the best previously reported. The $beta^+$ decay of tsups{37}K occurs mainly via a superallowed branch to the ground-s
We measured two-neutrino double beta decay of $^{130}$Te using an exposure of 300.7 kg$cdot$yr accumulated with the CUORE detector. Using a Bayesian analysis to fit simulated spectra to experimental data, it was possible to disentangle all the major
The half-life of the $^{20}$F ground state has been measured using a radioactive beam implanted in a plastic scintillator and recording $betagamma$ coincidences together with four CsI(Na) detectors. The result, $T_{1/2} = 11.0011(69)_{rm stat}(30)_{r
This Letter reports results from the NEMO-3 experiment based on an exposure of 1275 days with 661g of 130Te in the form of enriched and natural tellurium foils. The double beta decay rate of 130Te is found to be greater than zero with a significance
The $frac{1}{2}^+ rightarrow frac{1}{2}^+$ superallowed mixed mirror decay of $^{19}$Ne to $^{19}$F is excellently suited for high precision studies of the weak interaction. However, there is some disagreement on the value of the half-life. In a new
