Abstract
A 180° magnetic spectrometer has been employed to measure the energy of several neutron thresholds and -ray resonances, as well as the energy of the alpha particles emitted by . The primary reason for performing these experiments was to obtain a set of energy standards with consistent experimental techniques for all the measurements. The neutron thresholds studied were , , , and . The -ray resonances at 872 kev in and at 992 kev in were observed. The same instrument used to make the energy measurements for these experiments was also employed to determine the energy of the alpha particles emitted by .
