A total of 142 ..gamma.. rays were observed in the decay of the 45- and 85-sec isomers of /sup 136/I using an on-line isotope separator system. Of these, 116 were placed in a level scheme for /sup 136/Xe consisting of 50 excited levels up to 6624 keV using results from Ge(Li) ..gamma.. singles and ..gamma gamma..-coincidence measurements. Our results are compared with results frem earlier decay and reaction experiments, and the levels below 2.8 MeV are compared with predictions of recent shell-model calculations. Strong ..beta.. population was observed to states above 3.5 MeV which are interpreted as neutron particle-hole states.
