Levels in 210Fr and the decay of a high-spin, multi-particle isomer

The structure of 210Fr has been studied through the 197Au(18O, 5n)210Fr reaction. A high-spin isomeric state has been identified at ~4.4 MeV. It has a lifetime of 686(17) ns and decays by two γ-rays that are very likely to be either M2 or E3 multipolarity. The measured strengths in the case of E3 as...
