Population of 195Os via a deep‐inelastic reaction

The present work reports on the 76195Os isotope, which is the most neutron‐rich osmium isotope for which transitions have been measured. It has been populated following a multi‐nucleon transfer reaction between a thin 78198Pt target and an 850‐MeV 54136Xe beam. Evidence from γ‐ray coincidences has been found for an Iπ = (272−) isomeric state with a measured half‐life of 26 ± 9ns.
