Description

The beta-delayed two-proton decay of the Tz=-5/2 nuclide 39Ti has been observed. The 39Sc isobaric analog state has been calculated to lie at 8.82 MeV using the measured two-proton sum energy of 4750±40 keV for its decay to the 37K ground state. Combining this excitation energy with a Coulomb displacement energy calculation has lowered the energy available for ground state two-proton emission of 39Ti from 760 to 530 keV. (orig.)
