Isotopes that are lighter than the stable < sup > 123 </ sup > Sb tend to decay by β < sup >+</ sup > decay, and those that are heavier tend to decay by β < sup >-</ sup > decay, with some exceptions.

Isotopes were then explained as elements with the same number of protons, but different numbers of neutrons within the nucleus.

Isotopes are atoms of the same element ( that is, with the same number of protons in their atomic nucleus ), but having different numbers of neutrons.

Isotopes are distinguished by the atomic mass number ( total protons and neutrons ) for a particular isotope of an element, with this number combined with the pertinent element's symbol.

The least stable is < sup > 138 </ sup > Dy with a half-life of 200 ms. Isotopes that are lighter than the stable isotopes tend to decay primarily by β < sup >+</ sup > decay, while those that are heavier tend to decay by β < sup >−</ sup > decay, with some exceptions.

Isotopes with atomic masses lower than the most abundant stable isotope, < sup > 158 </ sup > Gd, primarily decay via electron capture to Eu ( europium ) isotopes.

Isotopes with a mass number above 64 decay by β < sup >-</ sup >, whereas those with a mass number below 64 decay by β < sup >+</ sup >.

Isotopes of bohrium have also been detected in the decay of heavier elements.

Isotopes of silver range in relative atomic mass from 93. 943 (< sup > 94 </ sup > Ag ) to 126. 936 (< sup > 127 </ sup > Ag ); the primary decay mode before the most abundant stable isotope, < sup > 107 </ sup > Ag, is electron capture and the primary mode after is beta decay.

Isotopes of unbinilium are predicted to have alpha decay half-lives of the order of microseconds.

Isotopes which undergo this decay and thereby emit positrons include carbon-11, potassium-40, nitrogen-13, oxygen-15, fluorine-18, and iodine-121.

In any case, anyone who fails to make significant distinction between primary and secondary applications of economic pressure would in principle already have justified that use of economic boycott as a means which broke out a few years ago or was skillfully organized by White Citizens' Councils in the entire state of Mississippi against every local Philco dealer in that state, in protest against a Philco-sponsored program over a national TV network on which was presented a drama showing, it seemed, a `` high yellow gal '' smooching with a white man.
