Radiations from the decay of Ag102

Conference ·
OSTI ID:4880345
The beta and gamma radiations emitted from an isotopically enriched (51%) target of Pd102 bombarded by 16-Mev protons were studied. Measurements in a magnetic lens spectrometer indicate that Ag102 decays by positron emission with a half life of 13 plus or minus 0.4 min and with an end- point energy of 2.20 plus or minus 0.08 Mev. The following gamma rays were found to decay with the same half-life: 0.51 Mev (100) (annihilation radiation), 0.55 Mev (70), 0.72 Mev (26), 0.84 Mev (weak), 2.79 Mev (weak), and 3.33 Mev (weak). The numbers in the parentheses following the gamma energies indicate the relative intensities, taking the annihilation radiation intensity as 100. Gamma- gamma coincidence experiments indicate coincidences among the 0.55-, 0.72-, and 0.84-Mev gamma rays and between the 0.72- and 1.26Mev gamma rays. (auth)
