Abstract
The delayed gamma-ray emission in 252Cf spontaneous fission has been studied using a lithium drifted germanium detector. In the time range 300 nanoseconds to 5 microseconds after fission a number of gamma rays were seen and their half-lives and intensities were measured. The results are compared with a recent investigation which used a different experimental method.
