Abstract: 
An intrinsic Ge (LEPS-type) detector was used to measure the energy of the 166 keV gamma ray in Ce-139 decay against the gamma rays of Ta-182. Reference values for Ta-182 were taken from the recent list of gamma ray energy standards as updated by Helmer and van der Leun. Based on 18 runs taken under a variety of conditions, the average value for this La-139 gamma ray is 165.8575(11) keV. This is mid-way between two earlier results, but about six times as accurate. Some advantages of 139Ce as both a gamma ray and internal-conversion electron calibration source are pointed out. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
