Portions were used for liquid scintillation counting (disintegration rates) and [gamma]-ray spectroscopy with HPGe detectors. X- and [gamma]-ray intensities observed in the.sup.237Np decay were verified, with a new result of 15.08[+ or -]0.04% for the 29keV [gamma]-ray (5I higher than previous reports). K X- and [gamma]-ray intensities observed in the.sup.233Pa decay were verified with new results for the L X-ray intensities ([approximately equal to]55% total L intensity), approximately twice previously reported total intensity.
