Decay of (86)Rn-210(124) to Levels in (85)at-210(125)

• The decay of 210Rn to 210At has been investigated. Gamma rays were recorded in singles and coincidence using Ge(Li) detectors. Conversion electrons were studied with a Si(Li) detector and a double focusing magnetic spectrometer. Internal conversion coefficients have been deduced and several transition multipolarities have been determined. A decay scheme is presented and spin assignments are made.The electron capture decay from 210Rn has been found to proceed mainly to three levels in 210At: 2 280.8 keV (0-, (1-)), 1 525.5 keV (1+) and 1 488.6 keV (1+), with log ft values
