6 EQUATIONS OF RADIOACTIVE DECAY AND GROWTH

6.6 RADIOACTIVE DECAY SERIES If a radioactive nuclide is situated in the Chart of Nuclides far from the stability line (for the light elements at Z=N), the daughter nucleus after radioactive decay may be radioactive as well. In nature this occurs with the heavy nuclides in the uranium and thorium decay series (Chapter 12).
