γdecay and lifetimes of excited levels inTi49

The decay scheme of ${}_{}{}^{49}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Ti}$ up to 5.2 MeV excitation energy was investigated by the ($d,p\gamma$) and ($p,p^{\prime }\gamma$) reactions and by Coulomb excitation. Singles spectra and $p-\gamma$ coincidences were recorded. Lifetimes or lifetime limits were determined for 15 levels by Coulomb excitation or by the Doppler shift attenuation method. A consistent decay scheme for levels up to $E_x=5.2\mathrm{}$ MeV was deduced including many so far unobserved transitions. On the basis of these results $J^{\pi }$ assignments are proposed and a comparison is made with the predictions of the deformed configuration mixing model.
