States in odd-oddSb116excited by the decay ofTe116

Gamma-ray spectroscopic experiments have been performed on the $\frac{{\beta }^{+}}{\epsilon }$ decay of 2.50-h ${}_{}{}^{116}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Te}$. Results from these experiments and from complementary in-beam $\gamma$-ray angular distributions were used to construct a decay scheme. Twenty-one $\gamma$ rays were identified and placed in the decay scheme containing states in ${}_{}{}^{116}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Sb}$ at $0(J^{\pi }=3^{+})$, 93.7 ($1^{+}$), 103.0 ($2^{+}$), 446.0 (3), 550.9 (2), 574.4 (2), 731.7 ($1^{+}$), 917.7 ($1^{+}$), and 1158.3 ($1^{+}$) keV. The structures of the odd-odd Sb states are analyzed and discussed in simple shell-model terms.
