Abstract

The decay scheme of Be7 has been reinvestigated. Known numbers of Be7 nuclei were produced in targets via the Li7(p, n) reaction. Following activation, the yields of 478-keV γ rays from the targets were measured. From three such measurements, performed at different bombarding energies, the Be7 decay branching ratio to the first excited state of Li7 has been determined to be 10.8±0.4%. The implications of this result for the solar neutrino problem are discussed.

RADIOACTIVITY Be7: measured Iγ; deduced branching ratio to first excited state in Li7. Neutron detector. Ge(Li) detector.
