TRANSVERSE POLARIZATION OF K- AND L- CONVERSION ELECTRONS FOLLOWING THE BETA DECAY OF Hg$sup 20$$sup 3$

Journal Article · · Nuclear Physics (Netherlands) Divided into Nucl. Phys. A and Nucl. Phys. B
The degree of transverse polarization of internal K- and L-conversion electrons following the beta decay of Hg/sup 203/ was measured. In both cases the polarization vector was found to be antiparallel to the momentum of the preceding beta particle. Comparison of the experimental and theoretically calculated results indicates that the ground state spin of Hg/sup 203/ will be 3/ 2 or 5/2. (auth)
