From α counts and spontaneous-fission events, 1977Be36 obtained %α=90.4 6, %SF=9.6 6. Most of the interfering longer-lived SF events were subtracted. Because of some uncertainty in SF events’ origin, as pointed out by 1977Be36, this SF branching should be considered an upper limit (following α and ε decays, the granddaughter 256No also decays by spontaneous fission; if 260Db ε decays, then the observed SF events are expected to include contributions from the SF decay of 260Rf, too). The upper limit for ε decay was determined by 1977Be36 from absence of Lawrencium x-rays in their spectrum. Other measurements: %SF<20, %ε<20 (1970Gh02).
