Wc have measured the half-life and production cross section of the new isotope ^ '^Md, produced via the ^ ' ' 'Ani ("C,3n) reaction. Isolation of Md from other activities was accomphshed using elution with ammonium a-hydroxyisobutyrate f rom a cation exchange resin column. Experiments were performed with different irradiation time intervals, but the chemical Separation always began and ended at exactly the same length of time after the end of irradiation. All separations with the same irradiation lengths were combined and analyzed for growth and decay of the 3.0-d " ' F m daughter and 20.47-d " ' E s , granddaughter of ^ ' ' M d . The amount of ^ ' ' E s in each fraction depends on the length of each irradiation and the ^ ' ' M d half-life. An increase in the length of irradiation will cause a corresponding increase in the amount of the new isotope ^ '^Md and hence, in the amount of ^ '^Es produced, provided the length of irradiations are not very long compared to the half-life of ^ " M d . In this way, the Md half-life was estimated to be about 6 minutes with a production cross section of the order of 50 nb.
