Nuclear Spins and Magnetic Moments ofCu71,73,75: Inversion ofπ2p3/2andπ1f5/2Levels inCu75
We report the first confirmation of the predicted inversion between the pi2p3/2 and pi1f5/2 nuclear states in the nu(g)9/2 midshell. This was achieved at the ISOLDE facility, by using a combination of in-source laser spectroscopy and collinear laser spectroscopy on the ground states of 71,73,75Cu, which measured the nuclear spin and magnetic moments. The obtained values are mu(71Cu)=+2.2747(8)mu(N), mu(73Cu)=+1.7426(8)mu(N), and mu(75Cu)=+1.0062(13)mu(N) corresponding to spins I=3/2 for 71,73Cu and I=5/2 for 75Cu. The results are in fair agreement with large-scale shell-model calculations.
In-source laser spectroscopy of75,77,78Cu: Direct evidence for a change in the quasiparticle energy sequence in75,77Cu and an absence of longer-lived isomers in78Cu
This paper describes measurements on the isotopes (75,77,78)Cu by the technique of in-source laser spectroscopy, at the ISOLDE facility, CERN. The role of this technique is briefly discussed in the ...
Isotopic distributions of thermal-neutron-induced fission fragments of near-symmetric fission of Pu239,241 determined using calorimetric low-temperature detectors
Isotopic distributions were measured for the light fragment group in the transition region from asymmetric to symmetric fission for thermal neutron induced fission of $^{239}\mathrm{Pu}$ and $^{241}\mathrm{Pu}$ using the novel technology of calorimetric low temperature detectors in combination with the passive absorber method. Nuclear charge distributions were determined for 24 masses in the range $A=89$ to $A=112$ for $^{241}\mathrm{Pu}({n}_{\mathrm{th}},f)$ for the first time with the LOHENGRIN mass spectrometer. Moving from asymmetric to symmetric fission, known data were supplemented for masses from $A=110$ to $A=112$ for $^{241}\mathrm{Pu}({n}_{\mathrm{th}},f)$ and from $A=109$ to $A=1…
