Abstract
The low-lying levels of the odd-mass nuclei Ce-131 and Ce-129 have bee n investigated by means of the beta(+)/EC decays of Pr-131g+m and Pr-1 29, respectively, The Pr nuclei were obtained by bombarding Mo-94,Mo-9 6 targets with a 255 MeV Ca-40 beam, The radioactivities produced in t he reactions were transported with a He-jet device and gamma gamma t, X gamma t, e(-)gamma t coincidence measurements were performed. Conver sion electrons were measured with a magnetic spectrometer and transiti on multipolarities were deduced, On-line mass separation was used to s elect the Pr-129 beta-decay. The resulting level schemes of Ce-131,Ce- 129,Ce-127 are discussed in connection with level systematics and calc ulations performed by using the Interacting Boson-Fermion Model (IBFM) .
