Spectroscopy of gamma rays from 78As decay

  • 1. Kuwait Institute for Scientific Research, Kuwait

Description

Gamma rays accompanying the β- decay of 78As to 78Se have been studied using a high purity source and large volume germanium detectors. Seventeen new γ rays have been observed and eight previously reported gamma rays have been excluded. From singles and γ-γ coincidence data new levels are proposed at 1758.9, 2334.9, 2647.7, and 3372.7 keV whereas the 1693-, 1721-, 2452-, 2798-, 3192-, 3528-, and 3984-keV levels proposed in earlier studies have been withdrawn from 78As decay scheme. Deduced B(E2) ratios have been compared with theoretical calculations based on an anharmonic oscillator model
