Nuclear excitation by electron transition (NEET) was investigated on 197Au. It is expected for 197Au that the deexcitation of the K-shell ionized atoms would be accompanied by the nuclear excitation of the first excited level. Time spectra of 63-keV electrons emerging from a 197Au target after bombardment with 100-keV pulsed electron beam were measured with a specially designed nanosecond stroboscopic electron spectrometer. A decay component with a half-life of 1.9 ns was extracted from the electron time spectrum. The decay was attributed to the internal conversion electrons emitted from the excited 197Au nucleus as a consequence of the NEET process and the NEET probability was deduced to be P = (5.1 ± 3.6) × 10−5. The result was compared with several theoretical estimates.
