States in Tl209 were populated using a multinucleon transfer reaction with a Xe136 beam impinging on a thick Pb208 target at E=785 MeV. The beam was pulsed at 825-ns intervals in order to perform isomer decay spectroscopy. The known Jπ=17/2+ isomer in Tl209 was located at 1228(4) keV and measured to have a half-life of T1/2=146(10) ns. A second isomer with Jπ=13/2+ was found to have T1/2=14(5) ns. The previously suggested low-energy X and Y transitions were found to have energies 57(2) and 47(2) keV respectively, while the measurement of conversion coefficients and a new decay path make the spin assignments below the isomers experimentally firm. Correlating the delayed γ transitions with the prompt beam flash allowed the decay of states above the isomer to be found. The longer-lived isomer represents full alignment of the simplest two-particle, one-hole configuration and illuminates the remarkably weak coupling of the proton hole to the Pb210 core. |
