Abstract

In order to determine the Q-value between 205Pb and 205Tl, the Q-values of the reactions 205Tl(d, t)204Tl, 206Pb(d, t)205Pb and 205Tl(3He, d)206Pb have been measured and found to be -1288.7(6) keV, -1831.2(5) keV and 1761.7(14) keV, respectively. The energies of these reactions were calibrated with the 158Gd(d, t)157Gd, 172Yb(d, t)171Yb, 184W(d, t)183W and 187Re(3He, d)188Os reactions. The decay energy of 205Pb was deduced to be 51.3(6) keV. This value is relevant for solar neutrino measurements.
