Isotopes of Bohrium

List, data and properties of all known isotopes of Bohrium.


Content

Bohrium isotopes

All of the atomic nuclei of the chemical element Bohrium are summarized under Bohrium isotopes; these consist of an atomic nucleus with 107 protons and in the uncharged state of 107 electrons. The difference between the individual bohrium isotopes lies in the number of neutrons in the nucleus - and thus in the mass number.

Like all artificially produced elements, bohrium does not have stable atomic nuclei - all of them annihilate with a half-life of around one minute (270Bh) or far less.

 

Isotope Table: Bohrium

The two following tables list the most important data and properties of the Bohrium isotopes. Further information on the individual Bohrium isotopes is listed on separate pages and can be accessed via the link in column 1.

Notes (related to the columns):

1 - name of the nuclide, isotope.
2 - E: isotope symbol with mass number (superscript; number of nucleons) and Atomic number (subscript; number of protons).
3 - N: number of neutrons.
4 - relative atomic mass of the Bohrium isotope (isotopic mass including electrons) and the mass of the atomic nucleus in square brackets (nuclear mass, nuclide mass without electrons), each related to 12C = 12.00000 [2]. In addition, the mass excess is given in MeV.
5 - nuclear spin I, unit: h/2π.
6 - source nuclides: Possible, assumed or actual source nuclides (mother nuclides, parent nuclides). If applicable, the corresponding decay modes can be found in the data for the respective starting nuclide.

7 - isotope notation in short form.
8 - decay: half-live of the Bohrium isotope (a = years; ; d = days; h = hours; min = minutes; s = seconds).
9 - decay mode: type of decay into the respective daughter nuclides with n = neutron emission; p = proton emission; α = alpha decay; β- = beta minus decay with electron emission; EC = electron capture; β+ = positron emission; ε = β+ and/or EC; Iso = isomeric transition; CD = cluster decay; SF = spontaneous decay.
10 - decay probability in percent (%).
11 - decay energy; Particle energy related to decay type.
12 - other information and notes: AL = Adopted Levels (link to external data [1]).

Miscellaneous:

()- Numbers in brackets: uncertainty to represent the spread of the reported value.
~ - Theoretical values or systematic trends.
  - unlisted-: Nuclides that have already been mentioned in the literature but for some reason can no longer be found in the current nuclide tables because their discovery e.g. has not confirmed.
