Abstract

A classification is made on the basis of the forbiddenness of the transitions from the known nuclear isomeric states. The resultant grouping is shown to be in agreement with the Weizsäcker theory of isomerism and with internal conversion theory. The predictions of internal conversion theory are also compared with the experimental values that are available for the isomers considered.
