Electron capture decay rate of /sup 50/V

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. C; (United States)
A ..gamma..-ray peak attributed to the deexcitation of the first excited state of /sup 50/Ti has been detected from vanadium metal by a large, low background intrinsic Ge detector operating in a salt mine. The partial half-life for the electron capture decay of /sup 50/V to the first excited state of /sup 50/Ti has been estimated to be 1.2/sub -0.4//sup +0.8/ x 10/sup 17/ yr. A limit on the partial half-life for ..beta../sup -/ decay is also obtained.
