Synopsis

Nemilov and Pisarevskii (1957) have reported a 390 keV γ-ray in coincidence with neutrons from a Po-Li source, and interpret this as evidence for a level in B10 at 390 keV. A search for confirmatory evidence of this γ–ray has been unsuccessful, and it is estimated that such n–γ coincidences would have been detected in the experiment here described if they involved 8 per cent or more of the neutrons from the Po-Li source.
