Abstract
The gamma-ray emission probabilities of Yb-169 were determined directly fro
m the disintegration rate and the gamma-ray intensities. The disintegration
rates of Yb-169 sources were measured by using a 4 pi beta(ppc)-gamma(HPGe
) coincidence system with resolving times of both 2.06 and 5.66 mu s and th
e gamma-ray intensities were measured with HPGe detectors. The measured gam
ma-ray emission probabilities agreed relatively well with those reported by
Funck et al. (Int. J. Appl. Radiat. Isotopes 34(1983) 1215)but their resul
ts were slightly larger. The uncertainties were improved. (C) 1999 Elsevier
