Abstract

Conversion-electron measurements following the (144,2n) and He144,n) reactions reveal high-energy E0 transitions at 3020, 3485, and 3639 keV. The lowest of these deexcites the known two-neutron pairing vibrational state in Gd146. It is not clear whether either of the others can be associated with the 0+ member of the 3-×3- two-phonon octupole multiplet.
