Abstract
A search was made for an electron-positron pair transition from the 10.98-Mev state of to the ground state using the reaction and an intermediate-image pair spectrometer. No 10.98-Mev pairs were observed with an intensity as great as 2× that of the 3.86 Mev cascade gamma-ray from the 10.98-Mev to the 7.12-Mev state. This result suggests a lower limit of sec for the partial lifetime of a 10.98-Mev → pair transition.
