Directional Correlation of Gamma Rays fromSn116

Abstract
The directional correlations of successive gamma rays from Sn116 have been measured. Sn116 decays via 1.09-Mev—1.27-Mev, 1.49-Mev—1.27-Mev, 0.80-Mev—1.27-Mev and 0.40-Mev—2.09-Mev gamma cascades following beta decay from 54-minute In116m. The measured directional correlation functions are in agreement with those expected for 4(Q)2(Q)0, 4(Q)2(Q)0, 2(10% D, 90% Q, 0° phase) 2(Q)0 and 2(4% D, 96% Q, 0° phase) 2(Q)0 spin sequences, respectively.
