Abstract
Decay of $^{85}\mathrm{Ga}$ was studied by means of $\ensuremath{\beta}$-neutron-$\ensuremath{\gamma}$ spectroscopy. A pure beam of $^{85}\mathrm{Ga}$ was produced at the Holifield Radioactive Ion Beam Facility using a resonance ionization laser ion source and a high-resolution electromagnetic separator. The $\ensuremath{\beta}$-delayed neutron emission probability was measured for the first time, yielding 70(5)%. An upper limit of 0.1% for $\ensuremath{\beta}$-delayed two-neutron emission was also experimentally established for the first time. A detailed decay scheme including absolute $\ensuremath{\gamma}$-ray intensities was obtained. Results are compared with theoretical $\ensuremath{\beta}$-delayed emission models.
