The essential decay of pandemonium: a demonstration of errors in complex beta-decay schemes

The beta -decay of a fictional nuclide, Pandemonium, is created numerically using a statistical model. By analyzing its simulated gamma -ray spectrum as experimental data, the authors find that much gamma -ray intensity actually remains unobserved under normal experimental conditions. This result-il...

description The beta -decay of a fictional nuclide, Pandemonium, is created numerically using a statistical model. By analyzing its simulated gamma -ray spectrum as experimental data, the authors find that much gamma -ray intensity actually remains unobserved under normal experimental conditions. This result-illustrated for the case of /sup 145/Gd-casts doubt on many decay schemes determined from such spectra. (8 refs).
