Thank you for the opportunity to help you with your question!

When iridium-192 emits a beta particle as it decays.

Iridium 192 decays by emitting a beta partical, its half life is 73.8 days.

It decays 95.1% through negative beta emission, and the remaining 4.9% is through electron capture.

Please let me know if you need any clarification. I'm always happy to answer your questions.
