Neutron transmission and neutron capture ..gamma..-ray measurements have been performed upon 98.4% enriched samples of /sup 120/Sn. The transmission measurements were made at 18- and 80-m neutron flight paths. Neutrons were detected by a /sup 6/Li glass scintillator. Parameters have been obtained for 251 resonances up to 98 keV. From the shapes of the resonances, l-value assignments have been made for 70% of the resonances. Level spacings and strength functions for s- and p-wave neutrons have been obtained. Neutron capture ..gamma.. rays from 16 resonances, obtained with a Ge(Li) detector, have been utilized to determine the levels in /sup 121/Sn. New spin and parity assignments have been made for many of the levels. Four new levels have been found. The neutron separation energy was determined to be 6170.3 +- 2.0 keV. The /sup 121/Sn level scheme has been compared with those for /sup 117/Sn and /sup 119/Sn to investigate systematic behavior. (AIP)
