Abstract

β decay of Cd113 was studied with the help of a low background CdWO4 crystal scintillator (mass of 434 g) in an experiment at the Gran Sasso National Laboratories of the INFN for a period of 2758 h. The shape of the spectrum of the non-unique fourth-forbidden decay of Cd113 was measured, and the half-life of Cd113 was determined as T1/2=(8.04±0.05)×1015 yr.
