Beta-gamma directional correlation in170Tm

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento (1955-1965)

Summary

The existence has been confirmed of angular correlation between the Β-rays belonging to decay of 889 keV maximum energy of170Tm and the 84 keV γ-rays of170Yb. The differential angular correlation has been measured. By means of a Β magnetic spectrometer and Β-γ coincidences the shape of the low energy Β spectrum of170Tm has been studied. The results are in agreement with an assignment 1- to the ground state of170Tm. Under this hypothesis we have found the ratios of nuclear matrix elements effective in the Β transition which were in best agreement with the experimental data.

Riassunto

Con uno spettrografo magnetico e coincidenze Β-γ è stata studiata la forma dello spettro Β del170Tm di energia massima 889 keV. è stata confermata l’esistenza di una correlazione fra gli elettroni appartenenti al decadimento di energia massima 889 keV e i raggi γ di 84 keV del170Tm con l’uso di rivelatori a scintillazione. I risultati ci permettono di attribuire spin e parità 1- allo stato fondamentale del170Tm. In questa ipotesi sono stati ricavati i miscelamenti degli elementi di matrice della transizione Β che meglio interpretano i risultati sperimentall.
