Abstract

The number F of ²³⁸Pu L X-rays per alpha disintegration of ²⁴²Cm has been determined using fast coincidence techniques. The result F=(9.70+or-0.14)% is in accord with the one value previously reported. The disagreement between the measured values for the L₂ subshell yields in ²⁴⁰Pu and ²³⁸Pu is therefore not resolved and an explanation is suggested for the observed discrepancies.
