High spin states inTl194

High spin states in ${}_{}{}^{194}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Tl}$, excited through the ${}_{}{}^{181}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Ta}$(${}_{}{}^{18}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{O}$,$5n)$ reaction in the energy range $E=80-100\mathrm{}$ MeV, were studied using in-beam $\gamma$-ray spectroscopic techniques. Excitation functions, activity spectra, $\gamma$-ray angular distributions, and $\gamma -\gamma$ coincidences were measured. The strongly Coriolis distorted $\tilde{\pi }{h}_{\frac{9}{2}}\otimes \tilde{\nu }{i}_{\frac{13}{2}}$ two-quasiparticle band already known in ${}_{}{}^{196,198}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Tl}$ has also been found in this case. It is based on an $I^{\pi }=8^{-}$ isomeric state located 292.8 keV above ${}_{}{}^{194}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Tl}_{}^m{}_{}{}^{}$, $I^{\pi }=7^{+}$.
