Metastable states from multinucleon excitations in Tl202 and Pb203

Abstract: The excited level structures of 202 Tl and 203 Pb, above the 7 + and 29/2 − isomers, respectively, have been studied. An isomer with I π = 20 + and T 1/2 = 215(10) μs has been established in 202 Tl, and the level scheme extended from I = 10 to 20 h with the placement of fifteen new transitions. In 203 Pb, the I π = 37/2 + state is established to be metastable, with T 1/2 = 2.5(3) ns. Levels in both nuclei arise from intrinsic excitations, with likely particle-hole character for the higher-lying states in 203 … Show more

“…There have been several theoretical studies done in this mass region [20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31]. McGrory and Kuo [22] have reported the structure of the nuclei [204][205][206] Pb, [210][211][212] Pb, 210 Po, 211 At, and 212 Rn having few valence particles away from the 204 Pb core using conventional nuclear shell-model several decades before.…”

“…However, when approaching the N = 126 shell gap, collective behavior is no longer evident. This is the case for isotopes of Tl near the line of stability, where 203 Tl and 205 Tl are the two stable isotopes [1][2][3]8,9]. The nucleus 203 Tl, with N = 122, is only one proton and four neutron holes away from doubly magic 208 Pb and, as a result, its structure is expected to be dominated by single-particle excitations.…”

“…In contrast, there was limited knowledge on isomers in 200−203 Tl prior to investigations by this collaboration. Recently, the observation of isomers with half-lives ranging from a few nanoseconds to hundreds of microseconds in 200 Tl [11] and 202 Tl [8] were reported. The existing information on 203 Tl prior to the present work is limited, with levels up to possible spin (17/2) and excitation energy ≈3 MeV established through a deuteron-induced reaction [9], while a microsecond isomer was identified using projectile fragmentation [12].…”
