Abstract

The level structure of /sup 130/Xe has been determined from the BETA decay of /sup 130/Im, /sup 130/ Ig, and /sup 130/ Cs. The gamma rays emitted in the decay o f these species have been observed with high-resolution Ge(Li) detectors and Ge(Li) -Ge(Li) gamma - gamma coincidence experiments have been performed. Decay schemes for ihese three isotopes have been deduced. The half- life of /sup 130/ Ig/ has been measured as 12.36 plus or minus 0.01 h. (auth)
