Abstract
Measurements of the half-life of the 23.87 keV level in119Sn have been performed by delayed coincidence technique. Two different types of sources have been used in experiments with various detector combinations. A very pure source was made by implanting119mSn in a plastic scintillator by an isotope separator. This source could simultaneously be used as source and detector. The other source was made by simple drying of a drop of solution.
The mean value of the half-life of the 23.87 keV level from 21 measurements is found to beT 1/2=(18.03±0.07) ns.
