Isotopes of ununoctium
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ununoctium (Uuo) was only very recently synthesized; all data are theoretical. It has no stable isotopes. A standard atomic mass cannot be given.

[edit] Notes
- Values marked # are not purely derived from experimental data, but at least partly from systematic trends.
- Uncertainties are given in concise form in parentheses after the corresponding last digits. Uncertainty values from Ame2003 denote one standard deviation. Values from IUPAC are expanded uncertainties.
[edit] Theoretical
Theoretical calculations done on the synthetic pathways for, and the half-life of, other isotopes have shown that some could be slightly more stable than the synthesized isotope 294Uuo, most likely 293Uuo, 295Uuo, 296Uuo, 297Uuo, 298Uuo, 300Uuo and 302Uuo.[1][2][2] Of these, 297Uuo, might provide the best chances for obtaining longer-lived nuclei,[1][2] and thus might become the focus of future work with this element. Some isotopes with much more neutrons, such as some located around 313Uuo, could also provide longer-lived nuclei.[3]
