Abstract

The structure of odd–odd nuclei, such as 36Cl, offers a scope for investigating the underlying proton– neutron residual interaction. Such nuclei exhibit highly complex level structures due to the large number of possible couplings of the odd proton and neutron to the even–even core. In the analysis of the experimental data for the 36Cl nucleus, a few new gamma rays was also obtained; they were carefully placed in the level structure using coincidence techniques and relative intensities. The directional correlation from oriented nuclei ratios for the new as well as the known γ-ray transitions was also calculated.
