E(level): From least squares fit to Eγ

Jπ(level): Mostly from (136Xe,Xγ) based on γγ(θ) and band assignments, unless stated explicitly.

E(γ): From 238U α decay, 234Ac β- decay and 234Th(136Xe,Xγ)

I(γ): Relative photon intensity deexciting each level.

M(γ): E2 multipolarity for the 49.55 and 113.5 γ rays are from 238U α decay; quadrupole character for the 173.5-, 228.3- 278.2-keV γ rays were deduced by 1989Ge01 from particle-γ angular correlation measurements in 232Th(18O,16Oγ) reaction.
