Abstract

The half-life of the important radioisotope 198Au is evaluated by using several different statistical methods, such as weighted mean (WM), limitation of statistical weights method (LWM), normalized residuals method (NRM), Rajeval technique (RT), Bootstrap median (BM) and Mandel–Paule method (MP). After comparing and analyzing the results from these methods, a final value of 2.6948±0.0012d is recommended based on the stability and sensitivity of the methods and the resulting uncertainties.
