Abstract

Samples of spectroscopic grade copper were irradiated in the Graphite Reactor at Brookhaven National Laboratory for one month. The effects of the extended irradiation were observed in the form of gamma spectra recorded at 11 and 26 months postirradiation. The recorded spectra are not those to be expected as a result of the irradiation of Cu/sup 63/ and Cu/sup 65/ alone, but for the most part are due to Ag/sup 110/ and Co/sup 60/. (aut h)
