Abstract
The decays of 2.4-min and 9.3-h have been investigated with the use of Ge(Li) and NaI(Tl) -ray detectors. Coincidence relationships among the rays were determined in coincidence experiments. It was established that the decay of 2.4-min populates levels at 61.4, 334.4, 364.6, 572.4, and 669.7 keV in , and the decay of 9.3-h populates levels at 40.84, 243.43, 287.86, 548.25, and 637.20 keV in . Many spin assignments have been made from present values, previously reported conversion-electron data, and spectroscopic studies from nuclear reactions. The half-life of was measured to be 2.42±0.02 min. The fraction of decay (positron plus electron capture) of to the ground state of was measured to be 0.43±0.05; the ratio of positron to capture for the same decay was measured to be 0.22±0.01.
