N=90 region: The decays of {152m,g}Eu to 152Sm

The decays of {152m,g}Eu to 152Sm have been studied by gamma-ray spectroscopy using the 8pi Spectrometer, an array of 20 Compton-suppressed Ge detectors. Very weak gamma-decay branches in 152Sm were investigated through gamma-gamma coincidence spectroscopy. All possible E2 transitions between states below 1550 keV with transition energies > 130 keV are observed, including the previously unobserved 2^+_3 to 0^+_2 401 keV transition. The results, combined with existing lifetime data, provide a number of new or revised E2 transition strengths which are critical for clarifying the collective structure of 152Sm and the N=90 isotones.
