Measuring Ba-137m Half-Life in Lab by saleem is a document available to read on EtoBox.
1. The half-life of Barium-137m, a daughter isotope of Cesium-137, is measured directly and by observing the increase in activity after elution from a Cesium-137 isotope generator. 2. The experiment involves measuring the counting rate from a counter tube as the voltage is varied, and as the activity from the isotope generator and freshly eluted Barium-137m solution changes over time. 3. The data collected will allow determining the half-life of Barium-137m directly, and from the increase in activity as
