Extract

A further study has been made of the deuteron bombardment of silver. The following radioactive isotopes are formed: 2·4 min., 26 min. and 225 day along with the silver fraction; and 6·7 hr. and 1 year along with the cadmium fraction. Results of absorption measurements of the radiations emitted are given. The energy-yield curves have been determined for the 2·4 min. and the 26 min. Ag isotopes and also for the 6·7 hr. and 1 year Cd isotopes. The formation of the 26 min. body from silver has been explained on the basis of a new type of disintegration, namely the (d-p, 2n) reaction.
