β-Spektrum und Halbwertszeit des Rb87

  • Published:

Abstract

Theβ-decay of Rb has been studied with a scintillation spectrometer. To avoide source absorption and scattering troubles we used RbJ(T1)- and NaJ(T1)+Rb J-resp. CsJ(Tl)+RbJ-crystals. Theβ-spectrum was measured down to 6 keV and the observed maximumβ-energy was found to be 275±5 keV. The specific activity of natural Rubidium was determined at 740±10 cps per gram and the half life of Rb87 at (5,82±0,1)×1010 years.
