Abstract
The structure of110Sn is investigated through the decay of110Sb, whose half-life is measured to be 24.0±0.3 s. Gamma ray spectroscopy measurements lead to the construction of a decay scheme comprising 36 transitions among 18 levels in110Sn. Spin and parity of the states involved in the decay are deduced. New isotopes109,108sb are identified and their decay properties are discussed. The decay half-life of109Sb is measured to be 18.3±0.5 s and that of108Sb to be 7.0±0.5 s.
