Abstract

By a systematic on-line cesium mass separation fromA=122 toA=132 and subsequent gamma and electron decay spectroscopy at very low energy, new isomers have been precisely identified:122mCs (T 1/2=0.36±0.02 s),124mCs (T 1/2=6.3±0.2 s) and130mCs (T 1/2=3.46±0.06 min). Detailed level schemes are given for both124mCs and130mCs. Comparison of excited levels known in the odd-odd nuclei of the same region shows that more experimental informations are needed to propose a clear and realistic picture of the nuclear states structure.

Radioactivity:122m, 124m, 130mCs [from La or Ce,3Hexn]-measuredT 1/2,E γ,I γ,E CE ,I CE ,γ-γ-t, γ-ce coinc.; deduced ICC,124, 130Cs deduced levels,J, π. Online mass separated sources, Ge(Li), intrinsic Ge, Si(Li), magnetic electron selector.
