Abstract

Using radiochemical and gamma spectrometric technique the branching fractions in the beta decay of117Cd isomers and the internal transition branching of117mIn have been established. The beta branching fraction of117gCd→117gIn was obtained as 0.86±0.06 and the value of117mCd→117gIn was found to be less than 1%. The internal transitin branching and the isomer cross-section ratio were obtained as 0.31±0.02 and 0.197±0.002, respectively. From the measured isomer cross-section ratio the spin cut-off parameter was evaluated, which agreed with the value reported in the literature.
