Abstract
The extremely neutron-deficient even-even uranium isotopes were produced in the complete-fusion reactions induced by impinging and ions on targets. Fusion evaporation residues were separated in flight by the gas-filled recoil separator SHANS (Spectrometer for Heavy Atoms and Nuclear Structure) and subsequently identified using the recoil--correlation method. The improved ground-state to ground-state -decay properties of were reported in [Z. Y. Zhang et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 126, 152502 (2021)]. In this paper, we report on new -decay activities with keV for and keV for , which decay from the isomeric states of into the states of their daughter nuclei , respectively. The new results extend the systematics of the -decay fine structure for the and 126 even-even isotones.
