Abstract
The K-electron capture probabilities of two strong allowed transitions 5/2( +) --> 5/2+ and 5/2+ --> 7/2(+) were measured in the decay of Ru-97 employi ng the X-gamma internal summing technique. The two P-K experimental values were found to be 0.884 +/- 0.046 and 0.886 +/- 0.018 in agreement with the theoretical values 0.878 and 0.878, respectively. The theoretical values ar e seen to be insensitive for Q(EC) values above 200 keV.
