Abstract

The technique of isomer decay tagging (IDT) has been recently implemented at Oak Ridge National Laboratory to identify strongly deformed bands above a short-lived isomer in [Formula Presented] The IDT method provides very clean reaction channel selection of prompt in-beam decays by correlating these events with delayed events detected at the focal plane of a recoil separator. Using this method, coincident transitions above and below a [Formula Presented] isomer in [Formula Presented] were observed. The placement of this isomer in the [Formula Presented] level scheme is further confirmed and the deformed structure of the rotational bands built on the isomer is discussed.
