Description

Previous measurements of the Inner Bremsstrahlung (IB) from 147Pm have shown serious disagreements with the theory. In the present paper efforts have been made to measure the IB of 147Pm with reasonable statistical accuracy. In addition the exact Fermi function rather than its first order approximation has been incorporated in the evaluation of the Lewis and Ford (LF) theory, for the case of first forbidden transitions. The experimental results are in good agreement with LF theory. (author)
