Der β-Zerfall des208Tl

An iron-free intermediate-imageβ-ray spectrometer was used to investigate theβ-decay of²⁰⁸T1 in coincidence with the 2.615 MeVγ-ray of²⁰⁸Pb. Fourβ-groups were found, three of which were previously known. The fourth group has an endpoint energy of 0.64±0.03 MeV and an intensity of (4.5±1.5)%. It is supposed that this transition is still complex and feeds a group of levels around the known 4.3 MeV level of²⁰⁸Pb. Noβ-ray of maximum energy 1.032 MeV to the 3.961 MeV level could be found.
