In-beam γ -ray spectroscopy of low- and medium-spin levels in Po211
The structure of the low- and medium-spin levels of the $^{211}\mathrm{Po}$ nucleus have been studied with in-beam $\ensuremath{\gamma}$-ray spectroscopy with the $^{208}\mathrm{Pb}(\ensuremath{\alpha},n)^{211}\mathrm{Po}$ fusion-evaporation reaction. The level scheme was further extended with levels of the configurations $\ensuremath{\pi}{({h}_{9/2})}_{{2}^{+}\ensuremath{-}{4}^{+}}^{2}\ensuremath{\bigotimes}\ensuremath{\nu}{g}_{9/2}$, $\ensuremath{\pi}{({h}_{9/2})}_{{8}^{+}}^{2}\ensuremath{\bigotimes}\ensuremath{\nu}{g}_{9/2}$, $\ensuremath{\pi}{({h}_{9/2})}_{{2}^{+}\ensuremath{-}{4}^{+}}^{2}\ensuremath{\bigotimes}\ensuremath{\nu}{i}_{11/2}$, $\ensuremath{\pi}{({h}_{9/2})}_{{2}^{+}\ensurem…
On the decay of theJπ= 11/2−,T1/2= 38.9 h isomer in133Ba: search for the E5 transition and verification of the EC branch
International audience; This paper presents a search for the competing 11/2 − → 1/2 + E5 branch to the main 11/2 − → 3/2 + M4 transition from the T 1/2 = 39 h, J π = 11/2 − isomeric state in 133 Ba. An upper limit of 1.8 * 10 −5 could be established for the E5/M4 intensity ratio. In addition a long-standing controversy in the EC-decay of the same isomer was resolved: only one EC branch to the 11/2 + state in 133 Cs was observed. The shell-model structures of the involved states in 133 Ba and 133 Cs were studied with the microscopic quasiparticle-phonon model (MQPM). Good agreement with the decay rates B(λ) was obtained. In particular, the B(M4) value is well reproduced and further only one …
In-beam γ-ray spectroscopy of low- and medium-spin levels in 211Po
The structure of the low- and medium-spin levels of the 211Po nucleus have been studied with in-beam γ-ray spectroscopy with the 208Pb(α,n)211Po fusion-evaporation reaction. The level scheme was further extended with levels of the configurations π(h9/2)22+−4+⊗νg9/2, π(h9/2)28+⊗νg9/2, π(h9/2)22+−4+⊗νi11/2, π(h9/2)22+−4+⊗νj15/2, π(h9/2f7/2)8+⊗νg9/2, and π(h9/2)20+⊗ν(g9/2)20+(s1/2)−1. The single-particle neutron states νd5/2 and νs1/2 were also identified. Furthermore, a number of states feeding the low-spin structures were added. peerReviewed
