We observed a significant (<i>\u03c3<\/i>\u00a0= 7.37) peak-like deviation from the predicted angular correlation of the e<sup>+<\/sup>\u00a0e pairs at\u00a0<i>\u03b8<\/i>\u00a0= 140\u00b0. To the best of our knowledge no nuclear physics related description of such deviation can be made. However, the deviation can be described by assuming the creation and subsequent decay of a boson with mass of \u224817 MeV. In order to clarify the interpretation, we re-investigated the\u00a0<sup>8<\/sup>Be anomaly with an improved, and independent setup. We have confirmed the signal of the assumed X(17) particle and constrained its mass (<i>m<\/i><sub>0<\/sub><i>c<\/i><sup>2<\/sup>\u00a0= 17.01(16) MeV) and branching ratio compared to the \u03b3-decay (<i>B<\/i><sub><i>x<\/i><\/sub>\u00a0= 6(1)\u00a0<b>\u00d7<\/b>\u00a010<sup>\u22126<\/sup>).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_btn title=&#8221;Return to the PERIODICAL PUBLICATION page&#8221; style=&#8221;outline-custom&#8221; outline_custom_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; outline_custom_hover_background=&#8221;#ffac03&#8243; outline_custom_hover_text=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; shape=&#8221;round&#8221; size=&#8221;sm&#8221; i_icon_fontawesome=&#8221;fas fa-arrow-left&#8221; add_icon=&#8221;true&#8221; link=&#8221;url:http%3A%2F%2Ftandetron.atomki.hu%2Fen%2Fpublications%2Fperiodical-publication%2F|title:Periodical%20publication&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading source=&#8221;post_title&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:h3|text_align:left&#8221; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_text_separator title=&#8221;PERIODICAL PUBLICATION&#8221; title_align=&#8221;separator_align_left&#8221; color=&#8221;custom&#8221; style=&#8221;dotted&#8221; border_width=&#8221;2&#8243; css_animation=&#8221;right-to-left&#8221; accent_color=&#8221;#ffac03&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] A.
