Book Description
The directional correlation between the non-unique first forbidden 934-kev beta group and the 137-kev gamma transition in the decay of Re-186 has been measured as a function of beta energy above 150 kev. Analysis of the experimental data included a correction which takes into account the effect of backscattering of electrons from the crystal, for the finite energy resolution of the anthracene crystal scintillation spectrometer. The differential anisotropy increases with increasing beta energy to 0.158 plus or minus 0.006.
