Possible octupole states in 196Pt were studied via the 196Pt(p,pγ) reaction with 12.7 MeV protons. The results considerably strengthen the argument made previously that the low-energy octupole state in 196Pt is quite fragmented. Furthermore, one of the possible mixed symmetry states previously identified in this nucleus is observed in the present experiment, providing evidence that it has Jπ=2+.
