E0study of0+states near 5 MeV in208Pb

Strong E0 lines from the 4866 and 5237 keV ${0}^{+}$ states in $^{208}\mathrm{Pb}$ have been identified using a new high-energy conversion-electron spectrometry technique in the study of the $^{207}\mathrm{Pb}$(d,p${)}^{208}$Pb and $^{208}\mathrm{Pb}$(p,p'${)}^{208}$Pb reactions at ${E}_{\mathrm{d}=10}$ MeV and ${E}_{\mathrm{p}=17.3}$ MeV, respectively. No evidence for an E0 transition from the expected third ${0}^{+}$ state was found.
