Description

By irradiation of platinum with 14 MeV neutrons, 197Os is produced through the reaction (n,2p). The γ rays following the β- decay of 197Os are investigated with HPGe detectors. The ten new γ rays are observed, and the half-life of 197Os is 2.8 ± 0.6 min. A partial decay scheme of 197Os is proposed based on γ(X)-γ coincidence measurements. (authors)
