Isotopes of yttrium

Template:Short description Template:Infobox yttrium isotopes Natural yttrium (₃₉Y) is composed of a single isotope, yttrium-89. The most stable radioisotopes are ⁸⁸Y, which has a half-life of 106.6 days, and ⁹¹Y, with a half-life of 58.51 days. All the other isotopes have half-lives of less than a day, except ⁸⁷Y, which has a half-life of 79.8 hours, and ⁹⁰Y, with 64 hours. The dominant decay mode below the stable ⁸⁹Y is electron capture and the dominant mode after it is beta emission. Isotopes characterized range from ⁷⁶Y to ¹⁰⁹Y.

In products of [[nuclear fission], ⁹⁰Y exists in equilibrium with its parent isotope strontium-90.
