| Zusammenfassung | The specific activity of 87Rb was measured by means of 4πβ liquid scintillation counting in a two-photomultiplier-tube spectrometer. 3H-efficiency tracing was used togehter with the CIEMAT/NIST method to obtain the detection efficiency. For this purpose a new parameterization of the shape factor for the third forbidden non-unique β-transition was performed. The hygroscopic behaviour of the salts used for sample preparation was studied. The half-life of 87Rb was found to be T1/2 = 4,967(32) 1010a. |
