Abstract

The energies of some γ-rays have been determined by the method of semicircular focusing of Compton recoils in a magnetic spectrograph. The results thus obtained are as follows:

The two quanta emitted in the disintegration of Ga72 are present with equal intensity, which suggests that they may be in cascade. The γ-ray activity of Ga72 was followed for 100 hours and was found to decay with a half-period of 14.25±0.20 hr.
