Abstract
The electron affinity of tellurium has been determined to 1.970876(7) eV. The threshold for photodetachment of Te-(P-2(3/2)) forming neutral Te in the ground state was investigated by measuring the total photod etachment cross section using a collinear laser-ion beam geometry. The electron affinity was obtained from a fit to the Wigner law in the th reshold region.
