Title: Further Test of Internal-conversion Theory with a Measurement in {sup 119}Sn

Journal Article · · Nuclear Data Sheets

Precise measurements are being used to test theoretical K-shell internal conversion coefficients (ICCs): in particular, our program has focused on examining whether the atomic K-vacancy formed during the conversion process must be incorporated into the calculations. We report here a measurement on the 65.66-keV, M4 isomeric transition in {sup 119}Sn. Our preliminary result is α{sub K}=1610(27), which confirms the importance of including the vacancy in the ICC calculations.
