Uranium
Uranium-238 is the most stable isotope of uranium, with a half-life of about 4.468 years, roughly the age of the Earth. Uranium-235 has a half-life of about 7.13 years, and uranium-234 has a half-life of about 2.48 years.
For natural uranium, about 49% of its alpha rays are emitted by each of U atom, and also 49% by U (since the latter is formed from the former) and about 2.0% of them by the U. When the Earth was young, probably about one-fifth of its uranium was uranium-235, but the percentage of U was probably much lower than this.
Xenon-135
Iodine-135 is a fission product of uranium with a yield of about 6% (counting also the iodine-135 produced almost immediately from decay of fission-produced tellurium-135). This I decays with a 6.57 hour half-life to Xe. Thus, in an operating nuclear reactor, Xe is being continuously produced. Xe has a very large neutron absorption cross-section, so in the high neutron flux environment of a nuclear reactor core, the Xe soon absorbs a neutron and becomes almost-stable Xe. Thus, in about 50 hours, the Xe concentration reaches equilibrium where its creation by I decay is balanced with its destruction by neutron absorption.
