We have been studying the KX and gamma rays spectra in the electron capture decay of {sup 139}Ce{yields}{sup 139}La, which were measured by Ge-spectrometer. The absolute intensity of KX and the 165.8 keV gamma rays has been determined and the known conversion coefficients of the 165.8 keV gamma transition of {sup 139}La were used. The probability P{sub K} was determined as 0.755{+-}0.054. Our results have good agreement with the results of other works.
