Abstract
We report on the first -decay data of to isotopes beyond the doubly magic . The parent nucleus was produced by the in-flight fission of a beam on a target at 345 MeV per nucleon and measured at the BigRIPS separator of the Radioactive Isotope Beam Factory at RIKEN. By using advanced spectroscopy techniques, the half-life and the tentative spin-parity of were measured to be 346(19) ms and , respectively. In addition, we observed several low-lying non-yrast states in for the first time. Our data allowed us to rearrange the positions of the first and states in this nucleus and to construct the level scheme of in accordance with shell-model calculations. Additionally, we extend energy systematics of Te isotopes within neutron numbers 54 and 86.
