Abstract

Values of B(E3; 0+1 →3 1) have been determined for the nuclei 198, 200, 202, 204Hg by Coulomb excitation using 12C projectiles. The results obtained are 0.44 (14), 0.41 (4), 0.42 (4) and 0.37 (5) e2 · b3, respectively, corresponding to enhancements of 27 (9), 25 (2), 25 (3) and 22 (3) W.u. The data indicate a clear discontinuity of E3 transition strength between Pt (Z = 78) and Hg (Z = 80), and also between Hg and Pb (Z = 82).
