Abstract
The nonrelativistic calculations of the internal conversion of electric multipole radiation which have been made for the shell are extended to the shell. Numerical values of the conversion coefficient for both the and shells are given and curves showing the ratio of the conversion to the conversion for different energies and atomic number are presented. This latter ratio is quite sensitive to the multipole order and varies between ∼0.1 and 10 in the range in which the calculations are valid. A simple relativistic formula for the conversion of magnetic multipole radiation is given. In Section 5 we summarize selection rules and give applications of the formulas to experiments.
