Abstract

Excited states of 195At have been studied by means of in-beam γ-ray spectroscopy and the recoil-decay tagging technique. A strongly coupled rotational band feeding the α-decaying 7/2 state via unobserved transitions was identified. This band is presumably built on the oblate proton Iπ=13/2+ state. Confirming earlier measurements, α decays from the 1/2+ and 7/2 states were observed. Additionally, an E3 branch competing with the α decay of the 7/2 state was inferred. Also α decays of the odd-odd isotopes 194,196At were examined.
