Abstract
SummaryThe radiation from 198Au (half-value period 2·76 ± 0·02 day) have been studied, by absorption and coincidence methods, in a wide variety of experimental conditions. For the most part the results confirm those obtained by other investigators, but, in addition, a fairly intense γ-radiation of about 65 KeV. energy has been detected. This radiation has been distinguished from the weaker fluorescent K X-radiation of mercury, emitted as the result of internal conversion of one of the γ-rays of 198Au, and it has been shown that it is not the K X-radiation of platinum. Disintegration of 198Au by K-electron capture, if it occurs at all, cannot take place in more than about 15% of all disintegrations.
