By using a Ca-40 beam of the UNILAC accelerator, the new isotopes 94Ag
and 95Ag were produced through Ni-58(Ca-40,p3n) and Ni-58(Ca-40,p2n)
reactions, respectively, and identified by detecting beta-delayed prot
ons from mass-separated sources. 94Ag represents the heaviest N=Z nucl
eus with known decay properties. The beta-decay half-lives of 94Ag and
95Ag were determined to be 0.42+/-0.05 s and 2.0+/-0.1 s, respectivel
y. The measured beta-decay properties are compared with model predicti
ons.
