Abstract.
Excited states in 136Ba, populated in deep inelastic collisions by the interaction of 450 MeV 82Se ions with a 139La target, have been studied by means of in-beam \(\gamma\)-ray spectroscopy. A new isomer with \(I^\pi = (10^ + )\) has been identified at an excitation energy E x = 3.357 MeV. The half-life was determined as \(T_{1/2} = 94\pm10\) ns. The extracted B(E2) value is much smaller than those in 132Te and 134Xe. This hindrance is investigated by a shell model calculation.
