Abstract

Precision measurements of high energy transitions in the nuclei ²⁸Al, ⁹²Zr, ¹¹⁴Cd, ¹⁶⁵Dy, ¹⁶⁸Er, ²⁰⁰Hg and ²³⁹U were performed with the beta spectrometer BILL at the High Flux Reactor in Grenoble via internal and external conversion. The energy calibration was carried out with high energy transitions in the decay scheme of ²⁰⁰Hg, whose absolute energies have been related to the energy of the 411.8 keV decay line of ¹⁹⁸Au with a precision of 16 ppm. The following absolute values for neutron binding energies have been deduced: ²⁸Al: 7725.35 ± 0.20 keV; ⁹²Zr: 8635.11 ± 0.24 keV; ¹¹⁴Cd: 9043.13 ± 0.20 keV; ¹⁶⁵Dy: 5716.60 ± 0.14 keV; ¹⁶⁸Er: 7771.33 ± 0.20 keV; ²⁰⁰Hg:8028.79 ± 0.15 keV and²³⁹U: 4806.44 ± 0.20 keV. Some transitions below 1600 keV in ¹¹⁴Cd and ²⁰⁰Hg have been measured with a precision of a few eV.
