Robin, Pions have such a short lifetime, does any reaction really matter ? From: mix...@bigpond.com Hi, I got all these reactions wrong, and nobody said anything! :) Pi+ + 128I -> 128Xe stable. Pi+ + 137Cs -> 137Ba Stable. Pi+ + 90Sr (HL = 29 years)-> 90Y (HL = 2.67 days) -> 90Zr stable.

Hi, Muons are created by bombarding matter with fast particles that result in Pions which then decay into muons. Positive and negative Pions are created in equal number, but only the negative muons resulting from the decay of negative Pions are useful for fusion. That means that positive pions
