Multiple coulomb excitation of202Hg and204Hg
Multiple Coulomb excitation measurements on202, 204Hg have been performed with 5 MeV/u208Pb projectiles. The ground bands are excited up to the newly discovered 6+ states and B(E2) values are derived for the 4+→2+ and 6+→4+ transitions. Whereas the 2+ and 4+ levels in the Hg isotopes with 196≦A≦204 have an almost constant energy, the 6+ levels increase in202Hg and204Hg, compared to the lighter isotopes, by approximately 100 and 300 keV, respectively. The relative B(E2) values in both nuclei show that the collectivity in the neutron rich Hg nuclei is of more complex origin than expected from the few proton and neutron holes with respect to the 82 and 126 major shells.
The g-factor of the J?=12+ isomeric state in188Hg
Using the reaction175Lu(19F, 6n) theg-factor of the188Hg isomeric state (Jπ=12+,T1/2=135 ns) has been measured with the TDPAD method. The experimental value g=−0.168(10) supports the interpretation of an almost pure (vi13/2)−2 configuration for this isomer.
