Decay from a superdeformed band inPb194

Three experiments using the ${}_{}{}^{174}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Yb}({}_{}{}^{25}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Mg}, 5n){}_{}{}^{194}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Pb}$ reaction have been undertaken at the Early Implementation of Gammasphere to study the decay of known superdeformed states in ${}_{}{}^{194}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Pb}$. A single discrete transition with an energy of 2.746(2) MeV carrying 6(2)% of the full superdeformed band intensity has been identified. A discussion of our results and the assignment of the 2.746-MeV transition as a discrete $\gamma$ ray directly connecting the superdeformed $8^{+}$ and low-lying $6^{+}$ levels will be presented.
