Abstract

The single channel ⁵⁸Co gamma-ray spectrum and the spectrum in coincidence with K-x-rays have been studied with scintillation counters and a proportional counter and show no evidence for radiation other than the well-established 805 kev gamma-ray. Our results accord well with the decay scheme of Deutsch and Elliott. An upper limit of 2·5×10⁻³ per disintegration was set on the intensity of 29 kev gamma radiation which, according to a recent suggestion, follows the decay of ⁵⁷Co.
