Abstract
The conversion coefficients for several bandhead decays in 180Ta have been measured using pulsed-beam techniques and the 176Yb(7Li,3n) 180Ta reaction. The spin and parity of the 520 keV intrinsic state is established as 4+ and several earlier assignments are confirmed. Two-quasiparticle configurations for the 520 and 592 keV states are discussed and following reanalysis of the band properties, a consistent interpretation is reached. The 520 keV 4+ state is associated with the favored coupling of the v1/2-[521] ⊗ π9/2-[514] configuration while the 592 keV (5+) state is identified with the v1/2-[510] ⊗ π9/2-[514] configuration.
