The decay of the 23min131Sb

The direct and the coincidence spectra of gamma-rays from the¹³¹Sb decay have been measured by means of different Ge(Li) detectors. The Sb sources have been prepared from mixture of²³⁵U thermal neutron fission products. The proposed level scheme of the¹³¹Te nuclei is based on the coincidence measurements, the analysis of the energy sums and the reaction data. The 49 of the total number of 64 gamma-rays observed have been placed in the present decay scheme. Properties of the some levels in¹³¹Te are compared with those observed in other oddmass Te isotopes. A probable structure of some of the excited states in¹³¹Te is discussed.
