Abstract
The -decay properties of an excited state in at 6398.3(8) keV have been reexamined using the fusion-evaporation reaction. This level represents a key 93.1(8)-keV resonance in the system and its relative branching to the ground state, , has been determined to be (stat.) (syst.). This is a significantly higher value than the most recent evaluation and implies a considerable increase in the production of cosmic rays from radioactivity.
