Proton emission from {sup 150}Lu was studied using a double-sided silicon strip detector placed at the focal plane of the Holifield Radioactive Ion Beam Facility's Recoil Mass Spectrometer. The {sup 150}Lu nuclei were produced in the {sup 96}Ru({sup 58}Ni,p3n) reaction at a beam energy of 292 MeV. The half-life of the previously observed proton emitting state at 1.261 MeV was remeasured to be 49{+-}5 ms. A new proton emitting state in {sup 150}Lu was observed with a transition energy of 1.295{+-}0.015 MeV and a half-life of 30{sub -15}{sup +95} {mu}s. These values are consistent with an l=2 character for the new proton transition. (c) 1999 The American Physical Society.
