Double beta decay of U-238

Double beta decay of U-238 [electronic resource]

During the last period, two samples of 33 yr old uranyl nitrate have been examined for the accumulation of Pu-238 formed as a result of double beta decay. The 2.5 kg sample has led only to an upper limit of 6 × 10²° yr. The 8.5 kg sample has produced positive results corresponding to a half-life of...
