Excited 0⁺ states in ¹⁶⁰Gd have been examined with the (n,n′γ) reaction at incident neutron energies up to 2.8 MeV. Gamma-ray excitation functions and angular distribution measurements allow the confirmation of the existence of 0⁺ states at 1379.70 keV and 1558.30 keV, but we reject the assignments of additional previously suggested 0⁺ candidates. Limits on the level lifetimes of the observed 0⁺ states permit an evaluation of the collectivity of these states.
