First observation of excited states inPo192

Abstract
γ rays following the Dy160 (36Ar,4n)192Po reaction have been identified by employing a high-transmission gas-filled separator in recoil decay tagging measurements. The deduced level scheme reveals a flattening of the energy systematics, when going towards the neutron midshell indicating that the deformed intruder structures have become yrast. © 1996 The American Physical Society.
