Abstract
Half-lives and energies of rays emitted in the decay of isomeric states of nuclei in the vicinity of the doubly magic were measured in a decay spectroscopy experiment at Rikagaku Kenkyusho (The Institute of Physical and Chemical Research) of Japan Nishina Center. The measured half-lives, some with improved precision, are consistent with literature values. Three new results include a 55-keV ray from a new isomer with in , a 44-keV ray from the isomer in , and ns in . Shell-model calculations of electromagnetic transition strengths in the model space agree with the experimental results. In addition, experimental isomeric ratios were compared to the theoretical predictions derived with an abrasion-ablation model and the sharp cutoff model. The results agreed within a factor of 2 for most isomers. From the nonobservation of time-delayed rays in , new constraints on the , -ray energy, and internal conversion coefficients are proposed for the hypothetical isomer in .
