Description
We compare the data on the lowest 0⁺ isomers in the half-life range greater than 10 ns and those in less than 1 ns [1-3]. In comparing the two group of isomers from even-even nuclei, we come across many similarities. This suggests that the 0⁺ states having half-life less than 1 ns have similar structure. The relationship of these states to shape coexistence will also be highlighted. We also consider couple of examples, which point to specific symmetries [4].
