Ruthenium99
Ruthenium-99 is a radioactive isotope of ruthenium with a half-life of 39.256 days. This isotope is not found naturally on Earth, as it is a product of nuclear fission or other artificial nuclear reactions.
Ruthenium-99 decays into ruthenium-99 through electron capture and beta decay, and further into rhodium-99 by gamma
Ruthenium-99 is often produced artificially by neutron bombardment of molybdenum-98 in nuclear reactors. It has potential
Researchers have also explored the use of ruthenium-99 as a component in advanced radiation detection systems
Currently, the worldwide production of ruthenium-99 is limited, mainly due to the necessity of highly specialized
