Structure of low-lying states inMo94

The ($p,p^{\prime }\gamma$) reaction has been used to investigate the structure of low-lying states in ${}_{}{}^{94}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Mo}$. Single directional correlations provided reliable branching ratios, $J^{\pi }$ assignments, and multipole mixing ratios from analysis of the correlations via the compound statistical theory for nuclear reactions. From these measurements the $J^{\pi }$ value of the 2067.1 keV level was definitely assigned as $2^{+}$. Lifetimes for two states in ${}_{}{}^{94}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Mo}$ and limits for two additional states were obtained by the Doppler-shift-attenuation method. Values of $B\left(M1\mathrm{}\right)\mathrm{}$ and $B\left(E2\mathrm{}\right)\mathrm{}$ were obtained for six transitions in ${}_{}{}^{94}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Mo}$. Futhermore, properties of low-lying states in ${}_{}{}^{94}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Mo}$ were calculated in the shell-model framework and are compared with the corresponding experimental quantities.
