Abstract:The total probability f23 for the L 2 -L 3 Coster-Kronig transition at Z = 96 was measured by the L~-K .... x-ray coincidence technique with a 249Cf radioactive source. The value at Z = 96 was found to be f23 = 0.209 + 0.022 (2 a, 95 ~o confidence). This result is in agreement within the 2a error limits with previous measurements which range from 0.188 to 0.226, and this spread cannot be reduced by improvements in the experimental technique primarily because of the large correction required for the effect of n… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
