Abstract

The threshold energy for the

{}^{10}B

(p,n

)^{10}

C reaction and the energy of the 720 keV gamma ray which follows the decay of

{}^{10}C

have been measured to be 4876.91±0.10 keV and 718.353±0.011 keV, respectively. This has enabled the energy of the superallowed positron decay of

{}^{10}C

to be determined to be 885.72±0.09 keV, which is a necessary step in the deduction of an accurate ft value.
