A note on Δn ≠ 0 Stark transitions in hydrogenlike atoms
1992
In a gaseous helium or hydrogen target slow muons or antiprotons are captured into orbits with a high principal quantum number (n = 15 to 50) to form (μ− α)+ ions, (pα)+ ions, or (pp) atoms respectively. In the subsequent deexcitation process Stark mixing of the intermediary states plays an important role. The successful Mainz Cascade Model assumed Δn = 0 for the Stark transitions, although formally no such selection rule exists. This note examines the reasons why Δn ≠ 0 Stark transitions play only a negligible role in the deexcitation cascade.
On the yrast two proton-two neutron hole states in208Po
1978
High-spin levels in208Po, populated in the208Pb(α,4n)-reaction, were studied usingα-particles in the energy region 41–51 MeV. The energies of levels above the 6+ level have an uncertainty of about 10 keV due to the fact that the 8+→6+ transition has not been observed so far, but this transition has previously been established to be converted neither in theK-shell nor in theL-shells. It was found that the yrast cascade ofγ-rays from a 19+ level at 5896+e keV feeds levels of lower spin which all can be explained as originating from two proton-two neutron hole configurations. In the higher part of the cascade it is mainly the neutron holes which change their configuration, while the lower part…
Shell model and octupole states in148Gd from in-beam experiments
1990
Through (α, 4n) and (τ, 3n) reactions the high-spin states in the two-neutron nucleus148Gd were populated up toI π=21− at 7.2 MeV, including numerous states above the yrast line. The148Gd energy spectrum is interpreted in terms of the spherical shell model. Identification of the (νf 7/2 i 1 3/2)10− state gives the νi 13/2 single particle energy free of octupole admixtures as 2.1(1) MeV. Eight high-spin states between 1.2 and 3.7 MeV were identified as the couplings of the two valence-particles to the146Gd octupole phonon, and three above-lying levels are assigned as double-octupole excitations including a 12+ state which decays by anE3-E3 stretched cascade. All these octupole levels can be …
Prolate yrast cascade in183Tl
2000
The yrast sequence in ${}^{183}\mathrm{Tl}$ has been studied for the first time in recoil-mass selected \ensuremath{\gamma}-ray spectroscopic measurements. A rotational-like cascade of seven transitions is established down to the band head with probable spin and parity ${(13/2}^{+}).$ Unlike in the adjacent odd-mass Tl nuclei, prompt \ensuremath{\gamma} decay from the yrast band to a lower lying weakly deformed (oblate) structure is not observed. These features are consistent with the predicted drop of the prolate band head in ${}^{183}\mathrm{Tl}$ compared to ${}^{185}\mathrm{Tl}.$ The implications for the prolate energy minimum in odd-mass Tl nuclei at the neutron ${i}_{13/2}$ midshell $(…
Signatures of Spontaneous Breaking of R-Parity in Gluino Cascade Decays at LHC
1996
We study the pattern of gluino cascade decays in a class of supersymmetric models where R-parity is spontaneously broken. We give a detailed discussion of the R-parity violating decays of the lightest neutralino, the second lightest neutralino and the lightest chargino. The multi-lepton and same-sign dilepton signal rates expected in these models are compared with those predicted in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. We show that these rates can be substantially enhanced in broken R-parity models.
Competing T = 0 and T = 1 structures in the N = Z nucleus $^{62}_{31}$Ga
1998
Abstract The low-lying levels in the odd-odd N = Z nucleus 62 Ga have been identified for the first time. These data reveal a cascade of stretched-E2 transitions based on a T =0, 1 + bandhead which decays directly to the T =1, 0 + ground state. The observed levels are interpreted in the context of theshell model, using as a basis, the pf 5/2 g 9/2 orbits with a 56 Ni core.
High-rate dead-time corrections in a general purpose digital pulse processing system
2015
The abilities on dead-time correction of a real-time digital pulse processing (DPP) system for high-rate high-resolution radiation measurements are presented. The DPP system, through a fast and slow analysis of the output waveform from radiation detectors, is able to perform an accurate estimation of the true input counting rate (ICR), a fine pulse height (energy) and shape (peaking time) analysis even at high ICRs.
The atomic cascade of kaonic and pionic hydrogen
1990
Abstract The X-ray intensities of kaonic and pionic hydrogen atoms are calculated as functions of the hydrogen density and are compared to experimental data. Data on kaonic hydrogen are statistically not very significant, the comparison with the cascade results allows to test their intrinsic consistency. X-ray intensities from pionic hydrogen agree reasonably with the results of the cascade model.
PROTONIUM: The Mainz Cascade Model
1990
Recent experiments at LEAR have studied extensively the properties of antiprotonic hydrogen, often also called protonium.
In-beam γ-ray spectroscopy of 103Cd
1997
Excited states of Cd-103 were studied in the reaction Ni-58(Cr-50,4pn)Cd-103. The NORDBALL array with neutron and charged particle detectors was employed for the detection of gamma rays and light evaporated particles. The level scheme of Cd-103 was significantly extended. A strong cascade of E2 transitions connecting negative parity states was found, Shell model calculations were performed and positive parity excited states were interpreted in terms of neutron-particle and proton-hole excitations with respect to the doubly magic N = Z = 50 core. The negative parity band was well reproduced by the total routhian surface calculations. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science B.V.
