STUDIES IN DECAY OF 103PD

The decay of 103Pd has been studied using a double-focussing beta-ray spectrometer and a Ge(Li) detector. The K-Auger-electron, conversion-electron, K X-ray and gamma-ray intensities were determined. Precision energy determinations were obtained from the gamma-ray measurements with the Ge(Li) detector. The multipolarity mixture in the 40 keV transition was determined in a high-resolution L-subshell measurement. Conversion coefficients were calculated and log f{hook}t values deduced from normalized transition intensities. A level scheme for 103Rh with spins and parities is proposed from the data, and a comparative discussion is included using existing data obtained from studies in the decay of 103Ru. © 1969.
