Abstract
The beta spectra of an equilibrium sample of Pu 246-Am 246 were examined with a magnetic-lens beta-ray spectrometer and a scintillation spectrometer. The Pu 246-Am 246 equilibrium sample and samples of Am 246 were investigated with gamma-ray scintillation spectrometers. Coincidence studies of the radiations were also performed. The data indicate that the decay of Am 246 is extremely complex, involving five beta-ray groups and many gamma rays. On the basis of gamma-beta coincidence measurements, the disintegration energy is 2·41 ± 0·10 MeV.
