141PR c  Measured: |g (1988Ch39,1970Ab05)
141PR c  1970Ab05: studied the branching of the 62.0 s, 11/2-, 757 keV isomer
141PR2c  in {+141}Nd in between the |e and IT decays; observed both
141PR2c  the 972|g following {+141}Nd |e decay (62.0 s) from the daughter level
141PR2c  11/2-, 1118 in {+141}Pr, and the 757|g from {+141}Nd IT decay (62.0 s)
141PR2c  decay, and determined that I(|g+ce)(972|g)/I(|g+ce)(757|g)=0.00032 {I8}
141PR c  1988Ch39: Re-studied the isomer branching; did not observe the 972|g
141PR2c  (which presumably was below their detection limit)
141PR2c  but only determined the limit I(|g+ce)(972|g)/I(|g+ce)(757|g)<0.00009.
141PR2c  Used the (|a,2n|g) reaction to measure the branching of |g rays
141PR2c  depopulating the 11/2-, 1118 level and used the |g-ray branchings from
141PR2c  the (n,n'|g) reaction (1984Tr02) for the 9/2-, 2001 and 2383 levels
141PR2c  to determine |e feeding limits for these three levels (the most
141PR2c  likely to be populated by the |e decay of the isomer).
141PR c  The level scheme is from 1988Ch39 and is incomplete showing only
141PR2c  the levels and |g rays they included in the |e decay of the 62.0 s
141PR2c  isomer. According to 1970Ab05 the identification of 972|g in the insert
141PR2c  of Fig. 1 "Gamma-ray spectrum from the decay of {+141m}Nd" justifies
141PR2c  the |e direct populalation of the 1118 level in {+141}Pr even though
141PR2c  this was not confirmed by 1988Ch39 (presumably becasue of lack of
141PR2c  sensitity of their experiment, as suggested by a weaker 757|g
141PR2c  relative to 1970Ab05). The 972|g populates the 145 level
141PR2c  decayed by the 145|g to {+141}Pr g.s., and also implies the direct
141PR2c  decay to the g.s. by the weaker 1118|g branch.
141PR2c  For the other two levels considered
141PR2c  by 1988Ch39, 2001 and 2383, only weak limits were established
141PR2c  and the existence of the respective |e decay branches is questionable.
141PR2c  No other |g decays of these levels other than suggested by
141PR2c  1988Ch39 were considered by the evaluator (see the
141PR2c  Adopted Levels, Gammas dataset for other possible transitions)
