K-shell electron shakeoff in the positron decay of /sup 58/Co

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. C; (United States)
The probability for K-shell electron shakeoff in the positron decay of /sup 58/Co has been measured by recording coincidences between the annihilation radiation produced subsequent to the positron decay and the Fe K x rays produced when the K-shell vacancy is filled. This probability was found to be (13.8 +- 2.4) x 10/sup -4/, which is approximately 2 times larger than recent theoretical predictions by Law and Suzuki.
