Abstract

Gamma-ray and conversion electron singles and coincidence spectroscopy have been performed on the decay of 6.2-h Cs127 to levels of Xe127 and 30-h Cs129 to levels of Xe129. From these data, new levels, transition multipolarities, and spin and parity assignments are derived. The systematic structure of the odd-mass Xe nuclides with 69N<81 is shown and the results of various calculations are discussed. Support for the use of relatively weak coupling models to describe these nuclides is enumerated. © 1990 The American Physical Society.
