Abstract: | The methods of time-resolved and time-integral on-line nuclear orientation have been applied to study short lived nuclei with
the NICOLE facility (Nuclear Implantation into Cold On-Line Equipment) at ISOLDE-3 in CERN using beams of182–186Hg. The half-lives in these decay chains are of the order of seconds and therefore comparable to the spin-lattice relaxation
times of the nuclei in iron. As the relaxation rate depends strongly on the g-factor, g-factors of nuclei in the decay chains
can be deduced from the observation of the time evolution of γ-ray anisotropy. Using this technique the existence of an isomer
in184Au has been found and the g-factors of184Au,184mAu and182Au have been determined. Accurate half-lives have been extracted from the data.
Time-integral nuclear orientation has been observed for short lived as well as longer lived isotopes of the Hg decay chains.
From these measurements, after proper correction for incomplete relaxation, the magnetic moments of183mPt,183Ir and182Ir have been derived.
The applicability of the time-resolved nuclear orientation technique for nuclei far from stability and its possible limitations
is discussed. |
