Measurements of the abundances of cosmic-ray ^(59)Ni and ^(59)Co are reported from the Cosmic-Ray Isotope Spectrometer (CRIS) on the Advanced Composition Explorer. These nuclides form a parent-daughter pair in a radioactive decay which can occur only by electron capture. This decay cannot occur once the nuclei are accelerated to high energies and stripped of their electrons. The CRIS data indicate that the decay of ^(59)Ni to ^(59)Co has occurred, leading to the conclusion that a time longer than the 7.6 × 10^4 yr half-life of ^(59)Ni elapsed before the particles were accelerated. Such long delays indicate the acceleration of old, stellar or interstellar material rather than fresh supernova ejecta. For cosmic-ray source material to have the composition of supernova ejecta would require that these ejecta not undergo significant mixing with normal interstellar gas before ~10^5 yr has elapsed.
