Experimental study of145Cs Decay

The decay of mass separated145Cs (T1/2= 0.59 s) was studied. Singles gamma and electron spectra were investigated using Ge(Li) and Si(Li) detectors. A level scheme for145Ba based on the application of energy sum relations is proposed. The β-branching and logft values for the ground and excited states were deduced from the analysis of γ +ce− intensity balances. Spin and parity assignments based on transition multipolarities are proposed.
