Abstract:A measurement has been made of the internal pair-creation coefficient of the 2.76 MeV. gamma-ray line from Na 24. This is found to lie very close to the curve of electric dipole transitions predicted by Jaeger and Hulme for Z-=0 and suggests that measurement of this coefficient for high energy transitions in light nuclei may provide a useful method of determining multipole order. On the assumption that the 2.76 MeV. line is of dipole origin, an energy level diagram has been constructed for the Mg "4 nuc]eus.
