6. ( 10 pts.) Consider the following radioactive decay chain of fission products, where nuclide D is stable. A0?,B0?, and D0? are the constant fission rates of production (nuclides/s), and ???,?B? and ?C? are the decay constants. Write the set of four differential equations describing the radioactive decay chain in terms of the above parameters, and the number of nuclei N??,NB?,NC? and ND? at time t. (Do not solve the differential equations.) [ Ans. Radioisotope A: dtdNA??=A0?????NA?(t) ]
