Abstract

The difference in the decay constants of

{Be}^{7}

in Be, BeO, and Be

F_{2}

, have been measured using the differential ionization chamber technique. The results are

λ (Be) - λ (Be F_{2}) = (7.41 \pm 0.47) \times 10^{- 4} λ

λ (BeO) - λ (Be F_{2}) = (6.09 \pm 0.55) \times 10^{- 4} λ

λ (Be) - λ (BeO) = (1.31 \pm 0.51) \times 10^{- 4} λ

. These values are smaller than the results previously obtained by Leininger, Segrè, and Wiegand for the same compounds, but support their earlier work.
