We performed at ISOLDE the spectroscopy of the decay of the 8- isomer in 136Cs by and conversion-electron detection. For the first time the excitation energy of the isomer and the multipolarity of its decay have been measured. The half-life of the isomeric state was remeasured to T1/2 = 17.5(2) s. This isomer decays via a very slow 518 keV E3 transition to the ground state. In addition to this, a much weaker decay branch via a 413 keV M4 and a subsequent 105 keV E2 transition has been found. Thus we have found a new level at 105 keV with spin 4+ between the isomeric and the ground state. The results are discussed in comparison to shell model calculations.

We have measured the K-shell and total internal conversion coefficients, alpha_K and alpha_T, for the 150.8-keV E3 transition in 111Cd to be 1.449(18) and 2.217(26) respectively. The alpha_K result agrees well with Dirac-Fock calculations in which th e effect of the K-shell atomic vacancy is accounted for; it extends our precision tests of alpha_K calculations to Z = 48, the lowest Z yet measured. However, the result for alpha_T disagrees by about two standard deviations from the calculated alpha_T value, whether or not the atomic vacancy is included.
Odd-odd 136Cs nuclei have been produced in the 18O + 208Pb and 12C + 238U fusion-fission reactions and their gamma rays studied with the Euroball array. The high-spin level scheme has been built up to ~ 4.7 MeV excitation energy and spin I ~ 16 hbar from the triple gamma-ray coincidence data. The configurations of the three structures observed above ~ 2 MeV excitation energy are first discussed by analogy with the proton excitations identified in the semi-magic 137Cs nucleus, which involve the three high-j orbits lying above the Z=50 gap, pi g_{7/2}, pi d_{5/2} and pi h_{11/2}. This is confirmed by the results of shell-model calculations performed in this work.

We have measured the K-shell internal conversion coefficient, alpha-K, for the 65.7-keV M4 transition in 119Sn to be 1621(25). This result agrees well with Dirac-Fock calculations in which the effect of the K-shell atomic vacancy is accounted for, an d disagrees with calculations in which the vacancy is ignored. This extends our precision tests of theory to Z = 50, the lowest Z yet measured.

We have measured the K-shell and total internal conversion coefficients (ICCs), alpha_K and alpha_T, for the 109.3-keV M4 transition in 125Te to be 185.0(40) and 350.0(38), respectively. Previously this transitions ICCs were considered anomalous, wit h alpha values lying below calculated values. When compared with Dirac-Fock calculations, our new results show good agreement. The alpha_K result agrees well with the version of the theory that takes account of the K-shell atomic vacancy and disagrees with the one that does not. This is consistent with our conclusion drawn from a series of high multipolarity transitions.

Neutron-activated sources of $^{103}$Ru and $^{103}$Pd both share the isomeric first-excited state in $^{103}$Rh as a daughter product. From independent measurements of both decays, we have measured the $K$-shell and total internal conversion coeffic ients, $alpha_K$ and $alpha_T$, for the 39.8-keV $E$3 transition, which de-excites that state in $^{103}$Rh, to be 141.1(23) and 1428(13), respectively. When compared with Dirac-Fock calculations, our new results disagree with the version of the theory that ignores the $K$-shell atomic vacancy, which is consistent with our conclusion drawn from a series of measurements on high multipolarity transitions in nuclei with higher $Z$. Calculations that include the atomic vacancy indicate that the transition actually has a small $M$4 component with mixing ratio $delta$ = 0.023(5).
