摘要
The nucleus Ba-122 possesses an excitation energy ratio R-4/2=E(4(1)(+))/E(2(1)(+))=2.90 matching exactly the value predicted by the recently discussed X(5) solution of the Bohr-Hamiltonian. Besides the ground state band, other low-spin positive-parity bands of Ba-122 are unknown hampering detailed comparison to the theory. Excited low-spin states of Ba-122 have been studied by in-beam gammagamma-coincidence spectroscopy with the Sn-112(C-12,2n)Ba-122 reaction. A level structure was observed which we interpret as a part of the gamma band of Ba-122.
