The Radioactive Isotope of Potassium
Year: 2024
Type: dissertation
Abstract: The isotopes of potassium were separated by means of a high intensity mass spectrometer and the beta-ray activity of each isotope was measured with a thin-walled Geiger-Müller counter. The measurements show that K40 is responsible for both of the known bands of beta-particles.
