About the half-life calculator

The half-life calculator is used to calculate the half-life of exponential decay.

Half-life is the time it takes for a decaying substance to reduce by half. It is commonly used to describe quantities that undergo exponential decay (such as radioactive decay), where the half-life is constant throughout the lifetime of the decay, and is a characteristic unit of the exponential decay equation (the natural unit of the scale). However, half-life can also be defined for non-exponential decay processes, although in these cases the half-life changes throughout the decay process.
