194BI c  2019Gh11: {+198}At from |a decay of {+202}Fr, which was produced in
194BI2c  U(p,X),E=1.4 GeV at ISOLDE-CERN facility using UC{-x} target and pulsed
194BI3c  proton beam. Francium atoms were ionized and accelerated to 30 keV,
194BI4c  followed by mass separation using High-Resolution separator (HRS).
194BI5c  Measured E|a, I|a, |a|g-coin using Si surface barrier detectors for |a
194BI6c  particles and two single-crystal HPGe detectors for |g detection.
194BI7c  FWHM|?33 keV for E|a=5-8 MeV range. The two activities of {+202}Fr
194BI8c  could not be separated in this work.
194BI c  1992Hu04: online mass-separated source from {+202}Fr |a decay produced
194BI2c  in Ir({+20}Ne,xn){+202}Fr and {+181}Ta({+32}S,2p9n){+202}Fr, and
194BI3c  directly in Re({+20}Ne,xn){+198}At. Measured E|a, I|a, |g rays,
194BI4c  conversion electrons, |a|g(t) coin using Ge and Si(Li) detectors.
194BI c  1996En01: online mass separated (gas-filled recoil separator) source
194BI2c  from {+202}Fr |a decay produced in {+170}Yb({+35}Cl,3n), E=171-186 MeV.
194BI3c  Measured |a particles using semiconductor detector.
194BI c  2005Uu02, 2005Uu03: {+198}At produced in |a decay of {+202}Fr produced
194BI2c  in {+141}Pr({+63}Cu,pn), E=278-288 MeV and in {+170}Yb({+36}Ar,p3n),
194BI3c  E=180-185 MeV
194BI c  2014Ka23: {+198}At source from {+202}Fr |a decay, which was produced in
194BI2c  {+149}Sm({+56}Fe,p2n), E({+56}Fe)=244-275 MeV reaction, with
194BI2c  beam from GSI accelerator facility. Target=370 |mg/cm{+2} thick
194BI3c  enriched to 96.9% in {+149}Sm, and backed with 40 |mg/cm{+2} thick
194BI4c  carbon backing and covered with a 10 |mg/cm{+2} layer of carbon. It
194BI5c  was mounted on a rotating wheel. Evaporation residues were separated
194BI6c  using SHIP facility at GSI, and implanted into the detection system
194BI7c  consisting of 16-strip position sensitive Si detectors (PSSD),
194BI8c  a pack of six Si strip detectors (BOX) at the back to detect escaping
194BI9c  |a particles, and three time-of-flight detectors in front of PSSDs.
194BIAc  Measured position and time correlations between evaporation residues
194BIBc  (ER) and |a events, E|a, half-lives of ground states and isomers of
194BICc  {+202}Fr and {+198}At, Er-|a-|a correlations. Comparison with previous
194BIDc  experimental results. (ER)|a|a correlated events were assigned to
194BIEc  {+202}Fr -> {+198}At -> {+194}Bi decay chain

194BI cA $6152|a observed in coin with 218|g and 382|g. 2019Gh11 tentatively
194BI2cA propose a level in {+194}Bi at 600 keV deexciting by a cascade of
194BI3cA 218 and 382 |g rays. Authors stated that it remained unclear whether
194BI4cA one of these |g rays is the same as the 218.2 or 382.4 feeding the
194BI5cA g.s. If a level is defined at 600 keV, then 218 and/or 382 must be
