Abstract.
The decay of 213, 214Ra was studied by α-γ and γ-γ coincidence measurements. The nuclei were produced in the reactions 170Er(48Ca, xn)218-xRa and 170Er(50Ti, 3n)217Th and subsequent α decay of 217Th to 213Ra. Evaporation residues recoiling out of the target were separated in-flight by the velocity filter SHIP and implanted into a position-sensitive 16-strip PIPS detector in order to study their subsequent decays. Associated γ-rays were detected by a four-fold Ge-Clover detector. In the present work we extracted new and improved data for 213, 214Ra including isomeric transitions. The results are discussed and compared with previously published data.
