Li8 Decay is Misleading
Li-8 decay is misleading. The footnote explains it's the equivalent of Spontaneous Fission with Positron emission, and lists the decay type as Alpha plus Beta- (positron). It seems to me it's more appropriate to say it uses Beta- plus Alpha decay and results in He4, not Be8. Does it spend any time at all in Be8, after all? TimeHorse (talk)

Lithium-5
I feel that Lithium-5 deserves more attention. There is no stable Isotope-5, of which Lithium-5 and Helium-5 are the most stable. At least a link to a page that discusses Isotope-5, Isotope-8, etc. 14.202.17.58 (talk) 18:19, 11 November 2023 (UTC)
