Robin Carter Chemical/Radioactive Composition: A member of the Platinum family, Uranium-235 decays down to Ruthenium-106, a high energy beta emitter. Ruthenium-106 decays to daughter Rhodium- 106, which decays to Palladium 100.[3] Ruthenium fission only yeilds .38%. Ru-106 has a maximum energy of 3.5 Mev.[4] Energy Characteristics: Exposure Rate Constant:
