A magnetic spectrometer analysing Compton electrons has been used to measure the energies and intensities of γ-rays emitted by the nuclei formed when thermal neutrons are captured by vanadium, manganese, cobalt and aluminium. The γ-ray spectra were studied in the energy range 0·25–11·5 MeV for vanadium, and 0·25–8 MeV for manganese, cobalt and aluminium. Transition schemes have been worked out for the nuclei 52V 56Mn, 60Co and 28Al. The γ-rays emitted during the radioactive decay of 56Mn were investigated.
