Abstract
The isotope was produced in the Ti,2n) reaction and its α-decay energy and half-life were measured to be 7.49(4) MeV and 2. ms, respectively. These data compare as follows with preliminary values reported by Quint et al.: =7482(20) keV and a =9. ms. While the two energies agree, the half-lives differ by a factor of almost 5. The earlier data yield an α reduced width which is much smaller than those of neighboring nuclides; our energy and half-life result in a width that fits the overall α-decay-rate systematics in the mass region above the Z=82 closed shell. © 1996 The American Physical Society.
