The decay of 96Tcg has been studied using low-temperature nuclear orientation. Multipole mixing ratios have been deduced for several transitions in the daughter nucleus 96Mo by measuring γ-ray anisotropies following the decay of the oriented 96Tc nuclei. These new mixing ratios are compared with those determined from previous measurements in light of the possible presence of a low-energy 6+ mixed-symmetry state in 96Mo.
