Abstract
Two samples of of high intensity were prepared at the Los Alamos homogeneous pile. The decay products of the gas contained a Cs activity presumed to be . The half-life of was found to be (2.1±0.7)× yr. and the maximum energy of its -radiations 0.21 Mev. No -radiations were detected. The capture cross section of for pile neutrons was determined to be 14.5±4 barns.
