. The radioactive isotope Uranium-234 decays to Thoriu-230 with a half-life of T. Thorium 230 itself is also radioactive and decays to Radium-226 with a half-life of γ and γ > τ Although Radium-226 is also radioactive its half-life is much longer than T and γ and here we assume that it is relative stable. Consider the scenario when we start with a certain amount of pure Uranium-234, because of this chain of decays, we...
