An electrical method for the determination of short-period activities and its use in the evaluation of the half-life of 12B

Extract
Equipment has been designed and constructed for the interruption of the ion beam in a high-voltage accelerating tube and for the detection and measurement of the period of short-lived radioactive elements. This method has been applied to the measurement of the half-life of 12B which has been found to be 27 ± 2 msec. The reaction 15N(n, α)12B has been detected.
