The only known 130 kev γ-ray in this region occurs in Ir191m (4·9 sec) which is produced by Ir191(n, n).Hennies andFlammersfeld used a neutron source which probably contained a higher percentage of fast neutrons. If they started counting soon after bombardment, a combined half-life of 4·9 sec superimposed on a 1·42 min background may have been detected.
