Structure of odd-odd /sup 132/Sb

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. C; (United States)
New information is presented on the decay of 40-s /sup 132/Sn to levels of odd-odd /sup 132/Sb. A second ..beta../sup -/-fed 1/sup +/ level was identified in /sup 132/Sb; it lies at an energy of 2268 keV and is fed by a relatively strong 0.83% ..beta../sup -/-decay branch. Four ..gamma.. rays were identified that form a weakly populated cascade from a level at 483 keV. Coincidence data demonstrate that the 254-keV level in this cascade is the 102-ns isomer identified previously by Clark et al. A 96-keV, isomeric ..gamma.. ray has been assigned to the decay of the 4.1-min, 8/sup -/ isomer in /sup 132/Sb. It may also be the 96-keV transition that is associated with the 1.8-..mu..s isomer identified in the A = 132 chain by Clark et al. The splitting of the levels in the proton-neutron multiplets is discussed and compared with the results of several recent shell-model calculations.
