Abstract
Gamma rays populating the α-decaying isomeric state in have been observed for the first time. The experiment employed the recoil-decay tagging method using the JUROGAM γ-ray spectrometer, the RITU gas-filled recoil separator and the GREAT spectrometer located at the RITU focal plane. The γ-ray cascade feeding the isomeric α-decaying state exhibits a rotational structure consistent with a proton coupled to a triaxially deformed core. The experimental results are compared with predictions from total Routhian surface calculations.
