Title: Observation of the single step links of the yrast superdeformed band in {sup 194}Pb

Conference ·
OSTI ID:414610

The EUROGAM array has been used to investigate the decay out of the yrast superdeformed (SD) band in {sup 194}Pb. Eigth single step decays from the lowest observed SD states to low-lying states at normal deformation (ND) have been identified. From this observation, the excitation energy (4877 {plus_minus} 1.5 keV) and the spin (6+) of the lowest observed SD state in {sup 194}Pb are established.
