Relativistic energy projectile fragmentation of Pb has been used to produce neutron-rich nuclei with N126. The nuclei of interest were studied by detecting delayed rays following the decay of isomeric states. Experimental information on the excited states of the neutron-rich Pt N=126 nucleus, following internal decay of two isomeric states, was obtained for the first time. Raw experimental data and shell-model calculations are presented.
