Abstract

High-spin states in 211Po have been populated through the incomplete fusion reactions 208Pb (9Be,α2n) and 208Pb(7Li,p3n). The yrast sequence decaying to the τm = 36.4 s isomer in 211Po has been established to a spin of (43/2+) at an excitation energy of 4873 keV. Two other isomeric levels have been identified, with mean lives of 350(30) ns and 4(1) μs at excitation energies of 2135.7 keV and 4873.3 keV, respectively. Relationships between the structure of high-spin states in 211Po and those previously identified in 210Po and 212Po are discussed.
