Abstract

The spectra of the continuous radiation or inner bremsstrahlung emitted in the beta-decay of P32 and RaE have been measured in the region of 20-250 kev with a NaI scintillation spectrometer. Comparison of the spectra on an absolute basis with the prediction of the theory shows good agreement.

The angular correlation of the radiation with the emitting beta-particles was also measured. The results are in excellent agreement with theoretical predictions.
