Energy levels of ²⁴⁹Bk populated in the α decay of ²⁵³₉₉Es and β^- decay of ²⁴⁹₉₆Cm

RADIOACTIVITY ²⁵³Es(α); measured Eα, Eγ, γγ-, αγ-coin. ²⁴⁹Cm(β^-) [from ²⁴⁸Cm(n, γ)]; measured Eγ, Iγ. ²⁴⁹Bk deduced levels, J, π, configurations, B(λ), g factors. ²⁵³Es(SF); measured Eγ, Iγ from fission fragment decay; deduced fission branching ratio. Gammasphere array, comparisons with model predictions.
