Bremsstrahlung emission accompanying the alpha-decay of (214)Po

We analyze the bremsstrahlung emission obtained by the alpha-gamma coincidence measurements to investigate on the alpha-decay dynamics of the (214)Po nucleus. We performed the experiment using a radioactive (226)Ra source leading, by alpha-decays, to the (214)Po nucleus, and the apparatus with the Si detector for alpha-particles, the NaI(Tl) detector able to collect photons with energies up to about 1 MeV. We compare the experimental data with the quantum-mechanical calculations and find a good agreement between theory and experiment for photon energies up to 765 keV. In the experimental data of the bremsstrahlung spectrum one can see the presence of slight oscillations.
