Abstract

The lifetime of the 2₁⁺ state of ²¹²Po was measured in the ²⁰⁸Pb(¹²C, ⁸Be)²¹²Po transfer reaction by γ-ray spectroscopy employing the recoil distance Doppler shift (RDDS) method. The derived absolute B(E2) value of 2.6(3) W.u. indicates a low collectivity and contradicts previous claims of alpha-cluster components in the structure of the 2₁⁺ state. It is demonstrated that a consistent description of the properties of the 2₁⁺-4₁⁺-6₁⁺-8₁⁺ sequence in ²¹²Po cannot be achieved in the framework of a single-j-shell-model calculation, either. This puzzle is traced to the properties of the seniority-2 configurations in ²¹⁰Pb and ²¹⁰Po.
