Delayed-neutron emission probabilities of separated isotopes of Br, Rb, I, and Cs
Delayed-neutron emission probabilities (P/sub n/) were measured for 16 isotopes of Br, Rb, I, and Cs. Sources of chemically and mass separated nuclides were obtained from an on-line mass spectrometer facility. Neutrons were counted in a multitube polyethylene-moderated detector. The total number of precursor atoms was determined by direct counting of ions deposited on the first dynode of an electron multiplier. The P/sub n/ values from this work generally agree with earlier measurements for the longer-lived precursors but are consistently higher for the shorter-lived precursors. A log-log plot of P versus the reduced energy window (Q/sub ..beta../ - B/sub n/)/(Q/sub ..beta../ - C) gives a straight line with a slope of 6.0 +- 1.4, in agreement with simplified theoretical predictions. Half-lives of Rb and Cs nuclides measured by neutron decay curves are given.
