Carbon-14 has a half-life of about 5,730 years — which means that 5,730 years after an organism dies, half of the isotope present in the original sample will have decayed.

For example, uranium 235, which is used in nuclear reactors and weapons, has a half-life of 703.8 million years, which means that it's so low a radio emitter that you could use it as a paperweight.

The researchers concluded, therefore, that this signal was the result of the inverse beta decay of the radioactive nuclei that had been produced when the gamma-ray photons had knocked neutrons out of ...

Taking honey jars from various regions in North America, they analyzed each sample for evidence of the radioactive isotope. In total, 122 honey samples were tested.

A spring break assignment for geology students has resulted in the discovery of radioactive isotopes in honey produced along the U.S. East Coast, and at levels higher than expected. The amount of ...
