Existence of the previously unknown isomer $$^{234m}$$Np was discovered for the first time. $$^{234m}$$Np was produced by using the JAEA tandem accelerator. Short-lived reaction products were mass-separated by the on-line isotope separator ISOL, and $$gamma$$ and X rays originating from the decay of $$^{234m}$$Np were observed. The half-life of $$^{234m}$$Np was determined to be approximately 9 min, and $$^{234m}$$Np was found to decay via the EC decay as well as the isomeric transition. On the basis of the observed $$gamma$$ and X rays and the half-life value, we have evaluated level energy, spin-parity, and proton-neutron configuration of $$^{234m}$$Np.

A new isomer $$^{234m}$$Np with a half-life of $$sim$$9 min has been discovered. It was produced in the reaction of $$^{233}$$U target with $$^{6}$$Li beam at JAEA tandem accelerator, and was identified through characteristic X-ray measurement and mass separation with an on-line isotope separator (ISOL). Gamma-ray singles, gamma-gamma coincidence, and internal-conversion electron measurements were performed. It was revealed that the $$^{234m}$$Np decays mostly through an isomeric E4 transition followed by an M1 transition, and that the spin-parity of the $$^{234m}$$Np should be 5$$^{+}$$. The results are introduced in detail, and the nuclear structure of the $$^{234m}$$Np are discussed.

We have carried out experiments to study nuclear structure of the new isomer $$^{234m}$$Np which we discovered recently. The $$^{234m}$$Np was produced in the reaction of $$^{233}$$U target with $$^{6}$$Li beam at JAEA tandem accelerator, and was mass-separated with an on-line isotope separator (ISOL). The half-life was determined accurately through LX-ray measurements. The $$gamma$$ transition emitted by following the isomeric transition was successfully observed through LX-$$gamma$$ coincidence measurements. Moreover, the multipolarities of the $$gamma$$ transitions were determined with internal-conversion electron measurements. On the basis of these experimental results, We have clarified excitation energy, spin-parity, and nuclear structure of $$^{234m}$$Np.
