Abstract

An application of the totalγ-absorption (TGA) spectroscopy to measurements of theβ-decay energies (Q) for nuclei far from stability is described. This approach provides theQ-values with accuracies up to 60 keV. TheQ values determined by this method at the IRIS facility for 64 nuclides in the mass region fromA=76 toA=165 are presented.
