Abstract
Using an unusual technique for precisely locating γ ray peaks in a spectrum from a Ge semiconductor detector, the energy of the 2.31-MeV γ ray which follows positron decay has been measured on a scale derived from the known energies of lines, as have the energies of the 2.18- and 2.32-MeV γ rays which follow the decay of Values of 2312.603(10), 2186.253(10), and 2318.973(10) keV, respectively, were determined. When taken together with updated, previously accepted values, these lead to recommended energies of 2312.590(10), 2186.244(7), and 2318.962(6) keV.
