Abstract
Excited states have been observed for the first time in 206,208,210Ra and in each case a decay scheme has been established up to Iπ = (8+). A sudden fall in excitation energy is observed for the 8+ state in 206Ra, along with a large increase in the B(E2) value for the 8+–6+ transition. This may be evidence for mixing with a deformed structure at spin eight.
