Systematic study of low-spin states in even Cd nuclei.

Low-lying low-spin collective states in even $^{106\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}112}\mathrm{Cd}$ and $^{116}\mathrm{Cd}$ were investigated using in-beam and off-beam \ensuremath{\gamma}-ray and conversion-electron spectroscopy. New spin assignments and decay branching ratios for the levels in $^{106}\mathrm{Cd}$, $^{108}\mathrm{Cd}$, $^{110}\mathrm{Cd}$, and $^{112}\mathrm{Cd}$ were obtained. The present results essentially complement the level systematics from $^{106}\mathrm{Cd}$ to $^{120}\mathrm{Cd}$. From the new data, it is inferred that two sets of low-lying ${0}^{+}$ states having different excitation characteristics cross between $^{114}\mathrm{Cd}$ and $^{116}\mathrm{Cd}$. No correspondi…

New features in systematics of low-spin states in even106?120Cd

Low- spin states in even106–112Cd and116Cd were investigated by in-beam and off-beam γ-ray and conversion electron spectroscopy. New spin assignments and decay branching ratios for the levels in106Cd,108Cd and110Cd were obtained. From the new systematical data for the even106–120Cd, it is inferred that two sets of low-lying 0+ states cross between114Cd and116Cd. One of these sets appears to have features of both intruder and two-quadrupole-phonon states.

New Features in the Systematics of Low‐Spin States in Even 106‐120Cd

Low‐spin states in even 106‐112Cd and 116Cd were investigated by in‐beam and off‐beam γ‐ray and conversion‐electron spectroscopy. New spin assignments and decay branching ratios for the levels in 106Cd,108Cd,110Cd and 112Cd were obtained. From the new systematical data for the even 106‐120Cd, it is inferred that two sets of low‐lying 0+ states cross between 114Cd and 116Cd. One of these sets appears to have features of both intruder and two‐quadrupole‐phonon states.

Single-Particle Excitations and Collective Vibrational Modes in 96Zr

New results from (n,n’γ) and (p,p’γ) reactions, as well as from β- decay confirm the double subshell closure in 96Zr and provide a detailed level scheme for this nucleus. The 1750 keV first 2+ state is described as a neutron particle-hole excitation, while the positive-parity band built on the 1582 keV excited 0+ state is characterised by quadrupole vibrational collectivity at low spins. Candidates for two-phonon octupole, quadrupole-octupole and higher multipole states are suggested on the basis of fast El and E2 decays to the 3- octupole state. The recently observed large octupole strength, its inverse relationship with the filling of the νlh11/2 orbital, and the onset of quadrupole defor…
