[en] Two superdeformed (SD) bands have been found in ¹⁹⁴Tl using the reactions ¹⁷⁶Yb(²³Na,5n) and ¹⁸¹Ta(¹⁸O,5n). The mass assignments were made from excitation function data. These are the first SD bands found in the mass-190 region that are not in Hg nuclei. The energies of many of the transitions of one of these new SD bands are similar in energy to those in the SD band of ¹⁹²Hg. (orig.)
