Abstract
Two superdeformed (SD) bands have been found in194Tl using the reactions176Yb(23Na,5n) and181Ta(18O,5n). The mass assignments were made from excitation function data. These are the first SD bands found in the mass-190 region that are not in Hg nuclei. The energies of many of the transitions of one of these new SD bands are similar in energy to those in the SD band of192Hg.
