Additional Level Data and Comments:
E(level) | Jπ(level) | T1/2(level) | Comments |
0.0 | (1/2+) | 1.7 ms +11-5 % α ≈ 100 | Proposed as the 191At g.s. in 2003Ke08, 2005Ke10. This state decays with an ≈100% α branching to the ≈112 keV (1/2+) level in 187Bi by a transition for which 2003Ke08 tabulate Eα=7552 keV 11, HF=0.4 3. From the general trend for n=104 isotones in the neighborhood a value of r0(187Bi)=1.52 1 can be estimated. Using this, together with the other α ray data, a value of HF=0.38 25 is then obtained by the Preston method. This hindrance factor indicates an unhindered α transition. This is similar to the case of the neighboring 193At ground state. α value of δ2=150 100 keV for this transition is quoted in 2003Ke08 (see also 2005Uu03).

55 | (7/2-) | 2.1 ms +4-3 % α ≈ 100 | This level decays by an α transition to the ≈63 keV (7/2-) level in 187Bi, and by a second α ray to the (9/2-) 187Bi ground state (2003Ke08). For these transitions 2003Ke08 tabulate the properties: 1) Eα=7653 keV 13, Iα=98% 2, HF=1.1 3; 2) Eα=7715 keV 15, Iα=2% 2, HF=50 50. Using the extrapolated value of r0(187Bi)=1.52 1, a recalculation of the hindrance factors using the Preston method leads to the values 0.98 22 and 74 80, respectively. α reduced α decay width of δ2=59 13 and 1.3 13 keV is reported in 2003Ke08 for the 7653 and 7715 keV α transitions, respectively (also in 2005Uu03 for the former transition).

Identification: Observation of recoil-α-α correlations with 187Bi in the reaction 141Pr(54Fe,4n)191At (2002LeZZ).
Observation of α decay in fusion-evaporation measurements using the 141Pr(54Fe,4n) reaction at E=248-266 MeV, at mid-target. Gas-filled recoil fragment separator RITU. Recoil and α-ray detection by position-sensitive Si strip detector (2003Ke08,2005Ke10).
Levels: Levels proposed on the basis of recoil-tagged α-α coincidences, measured E(α), and considering α-decay links to levels in the daughter nuclide 187Bi. No γ-rays from 187Bi were observed due to poor statistics (2003Ke08).
Q-value: Note: Current evaluation has used the following Q record
Q-value: Q(α), S(p) estimated by evaluators on the basis of the mass excess data deduced from the α-decay studies in 2003Ke08. These values are consistent with the extrapolation of the available S(p) and Q(α) data in 2003Au03.
Q-value: Other: S(p)=-1020 140 keV (2005Ke10).
