ABS>The decays of /sup 144/Pr and /sup 144/Pm populate ten excited states in /sup 144/Nd. Detailed gamma gamma angular correlation measurements were carried out in order to establish spin assignments for the levels. The measurements were performed with Ge (Li) -Ge (Li) and NaI(Tl)-Ge(Li) systems. Eleven sets of A/sub 22/ and A/sub 44/ values were obtained. The J/sup pi / assignments for levels in /sup 144/Nd (level energies in keV are as follows: g.s., 0/sup +/; 696, 2/sup +/; 1314, 4/sup +/; 151l, 3/su p -/; 1561, 2/sup +/; 1791, 6/sup +/; 2084, 2/sup +/; 2093, 5/sup -/; 2186, 1/sup -/ Mixing ratios were determined for six gamma -transitions.
