We have measured the probability of double {ital K}-shell vacancy production in the electron capture decay of {sup 125}I to the 35-keV level of {sup 125}Te. The probability was deduced from the number of triple coincidences between the Te hypersatellite and satellite x rays produced in filling the double vacancy, and the subsequent normal x ray accompanying the {ital K} internal conversion of the 35-keV level. The probability of double {ital K}-shell vacancy production per {ital K}-shell electron capture ({ital P}{sub {ital K}{ital K}}) was found to be (1.35{plus minus}0.15){times}10{sup {minus}5}.
