Annotatsiya

The $\ensuremath{\alpha}$ decay of $^{222}\mathrm{Th}$ populating the low-lying ${J}^{\ensuremath{\pi}}={3}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ state, and also a proposed ${1}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ state, in $^{218}\mathrm{Ra}$ has been observed. The observations suggest an excitation energy of 853 keV for the ${1}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ state, which is 60 keV above the ${3}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ state. The hindrance factors of these $\ensuremath{\alpha}$ decays give a possible boundary to the region of ground-state octupole deformation in the light-actinide nuclei. The relative positions of the ${J}^{\ensuremath{\pi}}={1}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ and ${3}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ states suggest they are produced by an octupole-vibrational mechanism, as opposed to $\ensuremath{\alpha}$ clustering or rotations of a reflection-asymmetric octupole-deformed shape.
