Study of Even Gd Nuclei by Decay of Oriented Tb, With Analysis by Simple Boson Models

1983

We have studied low-spin states of 150,152,154,156Gd by nuclear orientation of β-decaying Tb in a Gd host. Especially by means of multipole mixing ratios, including E0/E2, we have checked and revised spin-parities and assignments to (quasi) rotational ground, β and γ bands. For 150Gd we propose the new interpretation 1207.2 keV (0β+), 1518.5 keV (2β+), 1700.1 keV (4β+), 1430.5 keV (2γ+), 1988.0 keV (3γ+), 2080.0 keV (4γ+). For 152,154,156Gd we find agreement with recent literature. Our comparison with theory includes available data on 158,160Gd and on states up to 10g+, 10β+, 7γ+. We review our previously proposed "projection model", which is basically of the Bohr-Mottelson geometrical type…

On the magnetic dipole moment of the153Tb ground state

1981

Temperature dependence of the angular distribution anisotropy of the 212·0 keV gamma-ray following the decay of153Tb oriented in a gadolinium host was measured at temperatures from 16 to 70 mK. Magnetic dipole hyperfine splitting parameter a0 for153Tb(Gd) and magnetic dipole moment of the153Tb ground state were estimated to be ¦a0¦≧1·2×10−5 eV and ¦μ¦≧≧3·1 nuclear magnetons, respectively.
