摘要
We report a new high-precision lifetime measurement of the first excited 5/2(+) state of Cs-133 using NaI(Tl) and LaBr3(Ce) detectors. The time difference between the coincident decays of two successive states was measured using fast-timing electronics. The 356-key (1/2(+) -> 5/2(+)) gamma transition was tagged by the successive 81-keV (5/2(+) -> 7/2(+)) transition of Cs-133. The half-life of the first excited 5/2(+) Cs-133 state was measured as T-1/2 = 6.283 +/- 0.004 (stat.) +/- 0.011(syst.) ns.
