The Coulomb excitation experiment on the ¹⁷⁸Hf was performed using 650 MeV beam of ¹³⁶Xe. The first observation of discrete transitions in the K^π = 8^- isomeric band. Coulomb excited from K π = 0+ ground state, is reported. The possible mechanisms of El coupling of the ground state band and the isomeric band is discussed.
