Decay of 109Rh

The energy levels of 109 Pd have been studied from the decay of 109 Rh by using high-resolution γ-detector systems. A total of 35 γ-transitions were observed. From various coincidence studies on these transition, it is concluded that excited levels are populated at 113.4, 245.0, 266.3, 276.3, 291.4, 325.4, 326.8, 426.1, 491.7, 540.7, 597.3, 667.3, 983.4 and 1318.0 keV. The half-life of 113.4 keV level was determined as 380±50 ns. K conversion coefficients for a few low-energy transitions were determined. Spins and parties of most of the levels were deduced from β- and γ-transition properties combined with the previous studied on the ( d , p ) and ( d , t ) reactions.
