Abstract: Excited states of the nucleus <nu>¹²³Xe have been investigated with the fusion-evaporation-reaction <nu>¹¹⁰Pd(<nu>¹⁸O,5n)<nu>¹²³Xe at 86 MeV beam energy, using the compton-suppressed Nordball-multidetector-system at the Niels-Bohr-Institute in Risø, Denmark. The level scheme of <nu>¹²³Xe was extended up to a level of tentative 53/2⁺{\hslash}. Four excited bands of 3-quasiparticle-character were observed. Analyzing the directional correlation information, we could assign spin- and parity-values to all observed bands in <nu>¹²³Xe. The observed band structures fit well into systematics of the neighboring nuclei <nu>¹²⁵Xe and <nu>¹²⁷Xe.
