Abstract
The electron-capture decay of was investigated. Single and coincidence measurements were made by using germanium x-ray detectors. In addition, a Si(Li) detector was used to study the low-energy portion, ≲ 60 keV, of the -ray spectrum. These results were then combined with available conversion-electron data which had been obtained with a magnetic spectrometer. From this information, a decay scheme for was constructed. It incorporates 17 transitions into 11 excited levels in and differs from previously proposed decay schemes. Several transitions previously attributed to decay were not observed in the present study. The electron-capture decay energy was deduced from measured x-ray intensities and the level scheme to be 350±50 keV.
