Abstract
K-mixing mechanisms are reviewed, with reference to isomers in the A≈180 region of well deformed nuclei. The strong E1 photoactivation of 180Tam, through states at 1.1, 1.3 and 1.5 MeV, provides evidence for the role of octupole vibrations in the conversion of the K = 9 isomer to the K = 1 ground state.
