Abstract

Directional correlations of gamma-ray cascades in 130,132Xe have been measured following thermal n capture by a pressurised natural xenon gas target. Gamma-ray singles spectra were measured up to 5.5 MeV and the coincidence correlation data were obtained for the energy range 0.2-2.5 MeV. Decay schemes were developed on the basis of the coincidence measurements. The data spin-parity assignments to be made to most levels lying below 3.5 MeV in the 132Xe and the multiple mixing ratios to be evaluated for the more intense transitions. The results are fitted to IBM-1 and IBM-2 and are also compared with the prediction of the dynamic deformation model of Kumar (1983). The 23+ level at 1985 keV in 132Xe is considered to be a mixed-symmetry state with B(M1; 23+ to 21+)=0.29 mu N2.
