Abstract Measurements were made to determine the longitudinal polarization of the electrons emitted in the beta-decay of the second non-unique forbidden transition of99Tc at the energies of 150 keV and 200 keV. The amount of depolarization due to source effects was calculated using a newly developed Monte-Carlo code which takes into account all effects up to second order. The analyzing technique is based on Mott-scattering with a Wien-filter for spin rotation. The obtained results showed no deviation from −v/c, the value of allowed decays. This result is in agreement with theoretical calculations based on the formfactor-formalism as described by Behrens and Bühring.
