Cadmium113s
Cadmium-113m is a metastable nuclear isomer of cadmium. Its atomic nucleus contains 48 protons and 65 neutrons. It is produced primarily through the beta decay of indium-113 and also through neutron capture by cadmium-112. Cadmium-113m has a relatively long half-life of 1.7 hours, meaning it decays at a slow rate.
The decay of cadmium-113m primarily occurs through internal conversion, releasing energy in the form of electrons
In scientific applications, cadmium-113m has been used as a radioactive tracer in certain research studies. Its
