g-Factor of theT 1/2=35 ns isomeric state in154Er
1983
The reaction32S+126Te has been used to determine theg-factor of theT 1/2=35 ns yrast isomeric state in154Er through the time-differential spin-rotation method. The experimental valueg=+0.017±0.003 agrees with an aligned two-neutron ν(i13/2,h9/2) main configuration and supports an 11− spin-parity assignment for the isomeric state. Unambiguous spin-parity assignment for upper energy yrast states can be deduced. The properties of the isomeric state are discussed.
Properties of isomeric states and the ?d 3/2-vi 13/2 multiplet in194Au
1977
The level structure of194Au has been studied by observing prompt and delayedγ-rays following194Pt(p,n) and195Pt(p,2n) reactions. The conversion electron andγ-ray spectra from the decay of the 0.42s (10−) and 0.60s (5+) isomers at 476 keV and 107.4 keV, respectively, have been measured using the He-jet method. The half-lives of the 6+ (278.2 keV, 1.1±0.4 ns), 7+ (224.6 keV, 2.6±0.2 ns) and 8+ (406.8 keV, 2.9±0.4 ns) members of theπd3/2-vi13/2 multiplet have been obtained from the time distributions between cyclotron beam pulses andγ-rays depopulating these levels. A calculation made assuming a pure two-particle configuration for the multiplet predicts very well theB(E2) values for the transi…
Precise pion electroproduction in thep(e, e? ?+)n reaction at W=1125 MeV
1996
The reactione+p →> e+π ++n at c.m. energyW=1125MeV and momentum transfer Q2=0.117GeV2/c2 has been measured. The transverse and longitudinal structure functions have been separated by varying the polarization of the virtual photon (Rosenbluth plot) with a 3 to 4% error. In addition the longitudinal-transverse interference term has been determined measuring the right-left asymmetry with an accuracy of 3%. The experimental data are compared to model calculations, and the sensitivity of the results to the axial and pion formfactors is discussed.
Identification of the 13/2+ isomer in 199At
2000
The 13/2+ isomeric state in the 199At nucleus has been identified at an excitation energy of 573 keV and its half-life measured to be 580(130) ns using the recoil-decay tagging technique.
In-beam study of low-lying levels in the149Sm nucleus
1989
The146Nd(α,n) reaction combined with conventional in-beam spectroscopic methods has been used to study low-lying levels in149Sm. Several new levels andγ-ray transitions have been placed to the149Sm level scheme. Main features of levels below 1 MeV in149Sm have been reproduced in a quasiparticle-rotor model calculation.
Excited states in 31S studied via beta decay of 31Cl
2006
The beta decay of 31Cl has been studied with a silicon detector array and a HPGe detector at the IGISOL facility. Previously controversial proton peaks have been confirmed to belong to 31Cl and a new proton group with an energy of 762(14) keV has been found. Proton captures to this state at 6921(15) keV in 31S can have an effect on the reaction rate of 30P(p,γ) in ONe novae. Gamma rays of 1249.1(14) keV and 2234.5(8) keV corresponding to the de-excitations of the first two excited states in 31S have been measured. No beta-delayed protons from the IAS have been observed. peerReviewed
Nuclear ground-state properties in a relativistic Meson-Field theory
1986
We investigate the ability of a relativistic Mean-Field theory to reproduce nuclear ground state properties by an exhaustive fit to experimental data. We find that the bulk properties of nuclei from16O to208Pb can be adjusted very well. There remain problems with level density and fluctuations in the charge density similar as in fits using the conventional Skyrme Hartree-Fock model.
The quadrupole moment of the neutron-halo nucleus 11Li
1995
The quadrupole moment ratio of 9Li and 11Li was measured by a combination of in-beam laser induced nuclear polarization and β-NMR in LiNbO3. The result |Q(11Li)/Q(9Li)| = 1.14(16) is consistent with cluster models describing 11Li as composed of a 9Li core and a far extended halo of two loosely bound neutrons.
Fusion reaction Ca48+Bk249 leading to formation of the element Ts ( Z=117 )
2019
The heaviest currently known nuclei, which have up to 118 protons, have been produced in 48Ca induced reactions with actinide targets. Among them, the element tennessine (Ts), which has 117 protons, has been synthesized by fusing 48Ca with the radioactive target 249Bk, which has a half-life of 327 d. The experiment was performed at the gas-filled recoil separator TASCA. Two long and two short α decay chains were observed. The long chains were attributed to the decay of 294Ts. The possible origin of the short-decay chains is discussed in comparison with the known experimental data. They are found to fit with the decay chain patterns attributed to 293Ts. The present experimental results confi…
The new nuclide225U
1989
In the bombardment of a 270μg/cm 2 180Hf target with48 Ca projectiles at a primary beam energy of E/A=4.24 MeV/u the new nuclide225U was produced. The experiment was performed at the velocity filter SHIP. 225U was found to decay by α emission with Eα=(7880 ±20) keV (≈90%), (7830±20) keV (≈10%) and has a half-life ofT 1/2=(80 −20 +40 ms).
