鈷-60
Cobalt-60 (Co-60) is a radioactive isotope of cobalt. Due to its short half life of 5.27 years. Co-60 is not found in nature. It is produced artificially by neutron activation of Co-60.
Co-60 decays by negative beta decay to the stable isotope nickel-60 (Ni-60). The activated Ni-atom emits two gamma rays with energies of 1.17 and 1.33 MeV.
The β-decay energy is low and easily shielded. Both strong γ-lines are of same magnitude therefore Co-60 is used as a γ-ray source with an energy around 1.3 MeV.
Main uses for Co-60:
*As a tracer for cobalt in chemical reactions,
*Sterilization of medical equipment,
*Radiation source for medical radiotherapy,
*Radiation source for industrial radiography,
*Radioactive source for leveling devices and thickness gauges,
**As a radioactive source for food irradiation and blood irradiation, and
*As a radioactive source for laboratory use.
