The (εβ+) ratio in the decay of 48V and the fluorescent yield in Ti

Journal Article · · Physica
The ratio of electron capture to positron emission in the decay of V48 has recently been measured by BETA -- gamma coincidence measurements in a long lens BETA spectrometer. This paper reports additional measurements in a proportional counter in order to check the obtained results. A proportional counter filled with krypton was used in a slow coincidence arrangement with a NaI scintillation spectrometer. The pulses from the scintillation counter were delayed ln order to take into account the delay in the proportional counter. The resolving time of the coincidence circuit was 2.4 x 10-6 sec. The ratio of true to accidental coincidences was in all measurements at least 20%. The scintillation spectrometer recorded the gamma ray photopeaks. The arrangement was tested by a measurement on Na22The fluorescent yield in titanium was also determined.
