Transfer and neutron capture reactions toIr194as a test of Uν(6/12)⊗Uπ(6/4)supersymmetry

The structure of $^{194}\mathrm{Ir}$ is investigated via ($n,\ensuremath{\gamma}),(n,{e}^{\ensuremath{-}}),(d,p)$, and ($\stackrel{\ensuremath{\rightarrow}}{d},\ensuremath{\alpha}$) spectroscopy. The use of different methods leads to an almost complete level scheme up to high excitation energies including \ensuremath{\gamma}-decay and spin-parity assignments. A reanalysis of the formerly published ($n,\ensuremath{\gamma}$) data was triggered by our new ($d,p$) and ($\stackrel{\ensuremath{\rightarrow}}{d},\ensuremath{\alpha}$) transfer reactions. The experimental level scheme is compared to predictions using extended supersymmetry. Herein, the classification of states was done according to q…

Collectivity and Configuration Mixing inPb186,188andPo194

Lifetimes of prolate intruder states in {sup 186}Pb and oblate intruder states in {sup 194}Po have been determined by employing, for the first time, the recoil-decay tagging technique in recoil distance Doppler-shift lifetime measurements. In addition, lifetime measurements of prolate states in {sup 188}Pb up to the 8{sup +} state were carried out using the recoil-gating method. The B(E2) values have been deduced from which deformation parameters vertical bar {beta}{sub 2} vertical bar =0.29(5) and vertical bar {beta}{sub 2} vertical bar =0.17(3) for the prolate and the oblate bands, respectively, have been extracted. The results also shed new light on the mixing between different shapes.

Lifetimes of intruder states in 186Pb, 188Pb and 194Po

Abstract Lifetimes of prolate intruder states in 186Pb and 188Pb and oblate intruder states in 194Po have been determined through recoil distance Doppler-shift lifetime measurements. Deformation parameters of | β 2 | = 0.29 ( 5 ) and | β 2 | = 0.17(3) have been extracted from experimental B ( E 2 ) values for the prolate and the oblate bands, respectively. The present study addresses the phenomenon of shape coexistence typical for the nuclei near Z = 82 and N = 104 , providing information on configuration mixing of intrinsic structures of the nuclei of interest. The results are compared with the available lifetime data and theoretical results for neutron-deficient Po, Pb, Hg and Pt nuclei. …

New supersymmetric quartet of nuclei in the A ∼ 190 mass region

We present evidence for a new supersymmetric quartet in the A=190 region of the nuclear mass table. New experimental information on transfer and neutron capture reactions to the odd-odd nucleaus 194 Ir strongly suggests the existence of a new supersymmetric quartet, consisting of the 192,193 Os and 193,194 Ir nuclei. We make explicit predictions for the odd-neutron nucleus 193 Os, and suggest that its spectroscopic properties be measured in dedicated experiments.
