Resumo

A two-crystal scintillation spectrometer has been used to measure the $\ensuremath{\gamma}$-ray spectra resulting from the thermal neutron capture in ${\mathrm{Cd}}^{113}$, ${\mathrm{Co}}^{59}$, and ${\mathrm{Cl}}^{35}$. Measurements extended over the range of energies from 0.6 Mev to 4.0 Mev. Several prominent $\ensuremath{\gamma}$-rays were observed. Intensity considerations suggest that cascades involving several of these low energy $\ensuremath{\gamma}$-rays play a dominant part in the decay schemes.
