Abstract
| Experimental studies of beta-delayed proton and alpha-particle emission from precursors in the region close to the double shell closure at N=Z=50 are described. The results range from identification of new precursors like /sup 96/Ag and /sup 103,105/Sn, to determination of branching ratios, feeding of excited levels after particle emission and the energy available for proton emission. Comparison of the results with statistical-model calculations points to a resonance in the beta-strength function in the decay of /sup 110,112/I, /sup 113/Xe, /sup 114,116/Cs and /sup 117/Ba.
