Data 2003

This article is part of Wikipedia:Wikiproject Isotopes. Please keep style and phrasings consistent across the set of pages. For later reference and improved reliability, data from all considered multiple sources is collected here. References are denoted by these letters:

An asterisk after the A means that a comment of some importance may be available in the original.

Neptunium-245

But what about the brand-new 245Np isotope? It says nothing about 245Np on the table? A user who knows that the isotope exists should post information on it in the form of an additional row at the bottom of the table. You see, I know it exists.[1] --3.14159265358pi (talk) 17:27, 3 December 2011 (UTC)

It is not known to exist. It is a speculation. Double sharp (talk) 08:11, 17 October 2013 (UTC)
  1. ^ Brookhaven National Laboratory: Neptunium-245, see info about neptunium's newest isotope. Of course, it's only known information is its Δ (whatever that is), value 65.95 MeV Syst.
