Double K-shell vacancy creation in the decay of /sup 109/Cd

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev., C; (United States)

The probability P/sub K K/(IC) of double K-shell vacancy creation per K internal conversion of the 88 keV E3 transition in the decay of /sup 109/Cd has been determined by means of a K..cap alpha..-x-ray--K-x-ray coincidence experiment: P/sub K K/(IC) = (2.8 +- 0.7) x 10/sup -5/. The energy shift of the K..cap alpha../sub 1/ hypersatellite x-ray line was found to be (532 +- 12) eV.
