Measurements of prompt Doppler-corrected deexcitation γ rays from uniquely identified fragments formed in fusion-fission reactions of the type ¹²C(²³⁸U,¹³⁴Xe)Ru are reported. The fragments were identified in both A and Z using the variable-mode, high-acceptance magnetic spectrometer VAMOS. States built on the characteristic neutron configurations forming high-spin isomers (7^- and 10⁺) in ¹³⁴Xe are presented and compared with the predictions of shell-model calculations using a new effective interaction in the region of Z⩾50 and N⩽82.
