Nature of Some Transitions Occurring in 97Nb Populated from the Decay of 97Zr
Keyword(s):
Some of the low energy gamma transitions occurring in the decay of 97Zr to 97Nb were investigated with a 50 cm radius double focusing magnetic spectrometer. On the basis of the conversion coefficients determined from this investigation, a gamma–gamma directional correlation experiment was carried out for the 355–1750 keV cascade occurring in 97Nb. The combined results of the two investigations made it possible to assign spins and parities for a few levels in 97Nb for the first time.
