Popis: Experimental approaches to the identification of candidate nuclear systems suitable for the two-step gamma-ray laser are presented. Precision gamma-ray energy determinations and the deduction of level parity based on gamma-ray angular distribution and linear polarization measurements are emphasized. An extended discussion of fission isomers is presented. Only one fission isomer 238 U f , is known to exhibit both gamma-ray and fission decay. Experiments to extend the systematics of fission isomers to lighter actinide nuclei are discussed.
