Abstract With the use of the58Ni+50Cr fusion-evaporation reaction and chemically selective on-line mass separation, the EC/β + decay of104Sn was studied byγ-ray and conversionelectron spectroscopy. In the course of these studies, a new 15.7-s isomeric state of104In was observed. Reinvestigation of theβ-decays of the two heavier even isotopes of tin, produced in the58Ni+58Ni reaction and mass separated without chemical discrimination, brought new information on the decay of106Sn and108Sn. The QEC values of104Sn,106Sn and108Sn were determined to be 4550 −250 +300 keV, 3200±100 keV and 〈 2270 keV, respectively. In the data analysis, the emphasis is put on the identification of the 0+ → 1+ Gamow-Tellerβ transitions and determination of their strengths. For104−110Sn, the total Gamow-Teller strengths are measured to be 20% to 30% of that predicted by the single-particle shell model with the inclusion of pairing correlations and core polarization. Predictions of the decay properties of the as yet unobserved102Sn and100Sn are made.
