High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Naturally occurring barium (Ba) is a mix of six stable isotopes and one very long-lived radioactive primordial isotope, barium-130, recently identified as being unstable by geochemical means (from analysis of the presence of its daughter xenon-130 in rocks). This nuclide decays by double-electron capture (absorbing two electrons and emitting two neutrinos) with a half-life of (0.5-2.7)?1021 years (about 1011 times the age of the universe). Barium-132 is observed to be unstable but its half-life is unknown, so it's still a "stable" isotope now. The other five (from 134Ba to 138Ba) are theoretically stable.
