Phys. Rev. C 75, 024308 (2007) [9 pages]Test of internal-conversion theory with measurements in 134Cs and 137BaReceived 14 November 2006; published 23 February 2007 We have measured the ratio of K-shell internal conversion coefficients, αK, for the 127.5-keV E3 transition in 134Cs and the 661.7-keV M4 transition in 137Ba. Previous measurements of these αK values led to a ratio that differed from calculated internal conversion coefficients. Our measured result, 30.01(15), disagrees with, but is a factor of three more precise than, the previous average of all experimental results. Our new result is consistent with calculations. © 2007 The American Physical Society URL:
