Abstract

A new method has been developed for the measurement of short beta‐decay life‐times using the internal beam of the Harvard 95‐inch F.M. cyclotron. Targets are irradiated at different proton energies, and the decaying activities are detected inside the tank by a scintillation crystal‐Lucite pipe arrangement connected with a fast recording system.
