High precision measurement of the11Li and9Li quadrupole moment ratio using zero-fieldβ-NQR

The ratio of electric quadrupole moments of 11 Li and 9 Li was measured using the zero-field β-detected nuclear quadrupole resonance technique at TRIUMFISAC. The precision on the ratio Q11/Q9 = 1.0775(12) was improved by more than one order of magnitude and an absolute value for the quadrupole moment of 11 Li was inferred. Systematic effects, as argued here, are not expected to contribute to the ratio on this scale. The zero-field spin-lattice relaxation time for 8 Li implanted within SrTiO3 at 295K in zero-field was found to be T1 = 1.73(2)s. A comparison of the quadrupole moments of 9,11 Li and their ratio is made with the latest models, however, no conclusion may yet be drawn owing to th…

Structure of191Pb from α- and β-decay spectroscopy

International audience; Complementary studies of 191 Pb have been made in the β decay of 191 Bi at LISOL (CRC) and in the α decay of 195 Po at ISOLDE (CERN). Fine structures in the α decay of the low-spin and high-spin isomers of 195 Po have been fully resolved. Identification of the parent state is made possible via isomer selection based on narrowband laser frequency scanning. The α-particle and γ-ray energies have been determined with greater precision. New α-particle and γ-ray energies are identified. Branching ratios in the decay of 195 Po and 191 Pb have been examined. Structure of 191 Pb from α- and β-decay spectroscopy 2 PACS numbers: 23.20.Nx Internal conversion, 23.60.+e α decay, …
