Thep _K ω _K value of Sr following⁸⁸Y decay has been determined to bep _K ω _K =0.613±0.004 using two independent methods for the measurement of theK x-ray emission rate and a calibrated γ-ray spectrometer for the determination of the disintegration rate.

Determination of the K-shell internal conversion coefficient for the 37.2 keV transition in the decay of121mSn

TheK-shell internal conversion coefficientα _K for the 37.2 keV transition (7/2⁺→5/2⁺) occuring in¹²¹Sb afterβ ^? decay of¹²¹ mSn has been redetermined applying theX- toγ-peak method (XPG). Measurements of photon spectra from thin sources have been performed at various source-detector distances with a high resolution, efficiency calibrated Si(Li) detector. Values ofα _K have been deduced from the number of emittedKX rays compared to that of the emittedγ rays. TheK-shell fluorescence yield for antimony has been taken from the literature. From in total 14 experimental runs a mean result ofα _K =9.52±0.27 has been obtained. The quoted uncertainty comprising statistical and systematic parts is discussed in detail. The present result is compared with the few existing earlier experimental values and with the theoretical value interpolated from the most recent tabulations.     

Anomalous conversion in the decay of197mHg

The total andK-shell conversion coefficients of the 165 keV transition in the decay of^197mHg are determined from intensity balance considerations and a coincidence technique using a Ge(Li)—NaI (Tl) system respectively. The resultant values area _T =274.8±19.2 anda _K =47±12, whil the corresponding theoretical values are 344 and 77 respectively, indicating anomalous conversion. The gamma ray transition probability however, shows a hindrance of only about 6 and cannot be correlated with the present anomalous conversion data. TheK/L ratio of the 130 keV transition, determined using a summing method with a Ge(Li) detector, yielded 0.090±0.012, while the corresponding theoretical value is 0.048, indicating anomalous conversion. The corresponding gamma transition probability shows a hindrance of about 3000, in correlation with anomalous conversion.

TheK-internal conversion coefficients have been measured by the XPG technique for a number of low energyγ-ray transitions whose energies do not exceed theK-binding energies by more than 4 keV. Using Si(Li) detectors in singles and coincidence arrangements, the following results were obtained: 63.1 keV El in¹⁶⁹Tm(α_K=1.02±0.15), 72.0 keV E1 in¹⁸⁷Re (0.75±0.05), 57.8 keV M1 in¹⁶²Ho (11.42±0.67), 56.6 keV M1 in¹⁶⁴Ho (12.04±0.70), and 67.1 keV M1 in¹⁷⁴Lu(10.25±0.58). The experimental results are compared with the theoretical calculations which include transition energies down to 1 keV above threshold.     

Long-range alpha emission inP-wave neutron induced fission of235U

The yield and energy distribution of long-range alpha-particles (lra) emitted from neutron-induced fission of²³⁵U have been measured at neutron energies; thermal, 125±12, 155±11, 185±10, 210±9, 240±9, 365±50 and 480±45 keV. The long-range alpha-particles were detected in cellulose nitrate track detector foils. Results showed an increase of about 50% in the yield at neutron energies in the region 150 keV≤E _n≤220 keV as compared to that of thermal neutrons. A calculation has been carried out to extract thelra to binary fission ratio forp-wave neutron induced fission.     

Der Zerfall von Nb94 m

Using scintillation spectrometers and coincidence techniques the decay of Nb^{94 m} has been investigated. TheK-shell conversion coefficient of the 41.5 keV isomeric transition was found to be 570±100 indicating aM 3 transition. The maximum energy of theβ-decay to the 0.87 MeV level of Mo⁹⁴ is (1.15±0.03) MeV occurring (4·5±0·7)×10^?3 per disintegration, anotherβ-decay to the 1.57 MeV level was found to be (4·0±1·3)×10^?5. From this the parities and spins of the levels involved in the decay of Nb^{94 m} are determined.     

Four quasi-particle level at 2256 keV in182Re

In-beam nuclear spectroscopic studies of¹⁸²Re, following the reaction¹⁸¹Ta(α, 3n)¹⁸²Re have been made using gamma-ray and internal conversion electron techniques.K-conversion coefficients for several transitions have been measured and the multi-polarities of the various transitions assigned. In particular, the spin and parity of the four-quasi-particle isomeric level at 2256 keV were determined to be 16⁻. Theg-factor of this level has been measured to beg = 0·32 ± 0·05. On the basis of theg-factor and the decay pattern of this level, a configuration {v9/2⁺ [624↑]v7/2⁻ [514↓]v7/2⁻ [503↑]π9/2⁻ [514↑]} _k ^x = 16⁻ has been assigned to this level. The nature of the retardation of the gamma transitions deexciting this level is discussed. It is argued that the measured retardation factors can be explained if the nucleus has a triaxial shape.

The low-lying levels in⁷⁴As have been studied by means ofγ-ray and internal conversion electron spectroscopy following the⁷⁴Ge(p,n)⁷⁴As reaction.
