Abstract
The decay of mass-separated Bi isotopes is studied to characterize the shell-model intruder states in the odd-mass Tl and Bi isotopes. Allowed decay is observed between the ground states and the intruder states and between the intruder states and the ground states. The observation of forbidden branches provides excitation energies for the intruder states in and and confirms the intruder-state excitation energies in .
