New Analysis of levels in $^{103}$Mo

POSTER

Abstract

Excited states of $^{103}$Mo have been studied by analyzing $\gamma $-$\gamma $-$\gamma $ and $\gamma $-$\gamma $-$\gamma $-$\gamma $ coincidence data from the spontaneous fission of $^{252}$Cf at Gammasphere. 23 new transitions and 12 new levels identified have been identified in this work. Spins and parities have been assigned based on systematics and their decay properties to the existing levels. The newly identified band has been assigned as a one-phonon $\gamma $ band by comparing the energy level spacings and transition energies with that of $^{104,105}$Mo.
