Half-lives of the Tz=1/2 series nuclei, 81Zr and 85Mo

Excited states with spin larger than 5 were newly established in the ¹³²Cs nucleus via the ¹²⁴Sn(¹¹B,3n) reaction. Rotational bands built on the νh_11/2 ? πd_5/2, νh_11/2 ? πg_7/2 and νh_11/2 ? πh_11/2 configurations were observed up to spin I ～ 16. The νh_11/2 ? πh_11/2 band shows inverted signature splitting below I < 14. A dipole band was firstly observed in doubly odd Cs nuclei.     

Superdeformation in194Pb

High spin states in the odd- odd nucleus¹²⁴Cs have been investigated within theNordball collaboration. In the yrast cascade which is determined as a πh_11/2 ? νh_11/2 configuration, a rather large signature splitting in the ratios, B(M1)/B(E2), has been observed. Furthermore, signature inversion is suggested in the lower spin part of the yrast band.     

Shape change and shape coexistence in134Pr

The band structure of doubly odd nucleus¹³⁴Pr has been studied by means of the reaction¹¹⁹Sn(¹⁹F,4n) at 87 MeV bombarding energy. Rotational bands built on πh_11/2?vh_11/2 and πh_7/2?vh_11/2 configurations has been observed. A band consisting of quadrupole transitions, probably involving the vi_13/2[600]1/2⁺ orbital was also weakly populated.     

High-spin states in148Tb

High spin states of¹¹⁷Xe have been investigated by means of in-beam γ-ray spectroscopy using the reaction⁹²Mo(²⁸Si, 2pn) at beam energies of 100 to 120 MeV. The previously known νh_11/2 bands are confirmed and the νg_7/2 favored-signature band is extended up to 47/2⁺, in which two band crossings are observed at ?ω=0.33 and 0.44 MeV, respectively. Two new positive-parity bands have been established, one of which is most likely the νg_7/2 unfavored-signature band. A new transition cascade with irregular level spacings is also observed.     

The identification of element 108

In-beam studies with (α,4n) and (³He, 3n) reactions have located a second 10⁺ state closely above the 10⁺ isomers in¹⁴⁴Gd and¹⁴²Sm. The data characterize the¹⁴²Sm 10⁺ isomer as the νh ₁₁ ^2/?2 excitation in contrast to¹⁴⁴Gd where the 10⁺ isomer is of πh ₁₁ ^2/2 character.     

Quasiparticle structures in118Te

The structure of¹¹⁸Te has been investigated following the¹¹⁰Pd(¹³C,5n) reaction using gamma-ray spectroscopic techniques and a substantially extended level scheme is proposed. A negative parity quasirotational band based on πg_7/2h_11/2 configuration has been established upto J^π=19. The level structure, above the fully aligned πg²7/2?vh²11/2 J^π=16⁺ yrast state, is found to evolve into several non-collective states.     

High spin spectroscopy in odd-odd 170Lu

High-spin states in doubly odd ¹⁷⁰Lu have been studied through the ¹⁶⁰Gd(¹⁴N, 4nγ) fusion-evaporation reaction at a beam energy of 68 MeV. γγ-coincidences, Eγ,Iγ and angular distribution are measured. For the first time a high-spin level scheme consisting of three rotational structures is proposed. In the πh_9/2Θvp_3/2 yrast band, the (ab) neutron crossing occurs at a rotational frequency of ≈0.27 MeV. This is indicative of the partial disappearance of the blocking effect of the odd neutron. Another signature-split πh_9/2Θvi13/2 band exhibits normal signature-dependence and delayed (bc) neutron crossing is anticipated to occur at h?ω > 0.39 MeV in this structure.     

Yrast states in the doubly-odd nucleus100Tc

High spin states up toJ=14 and excitation energy up toE ^*=3076 keV have been observed in the odd-odd nucleus¹⁰⁰Tc with the reaction⁹⁶Zr(⁷Li, 3n), at bombarding energies between 21 and 31 MeV, by in-beam γ spectroscopy and conversion-electron measurements. A ΔJ=1 negative parity band similar to that observed in theN=57 isotone¹⁰²Rh, and based on the 8^?, 708 keV state has been identified. The observed band can be interpreted in terms of collective core excitations based on a two-quasiparticle state of(πg_9/2 ? νh_11/2) configuration. Comparison with IBFM-2 calculations have been performed.     

Two proton high-spin excitations and dipole bands in192Hg

The¹⁹²Hg nucleus was populated in the¹⁶⁰Gd(³⁶S, 4n) reaction at a beam energy of E=159 MeV. Emittedγ-rays were detected with the EUROGAM array comprising 43 Compton-suppressed large volume Ge detectors. The level scheme of¹⁹²Hg has been extended up to an excitation energy of E=10.4 MeV and spin I=34 ?. Two new structures, made of competing ΔI=1 and ΔI=2 transitions have been observed and their connexions with the low-lying levels established. Their lowest levels are located at 6.304 MeV and 6.879 MeV excitation energy. The experimental results are compared with mean-field HF+BCS calculations. It is proposed that the new structures originate from deformation-aligned quasi-proton excitations π(i_13/2 * h_9/2)_K=11 andπ (h_9/2) _K=8 ² , coupled to rotation-aligned quasi-neutron ν(i_13/2)ⁿ and quasi-proton π(h_11/2)² excitations.     

Shell model yrast states in theN=79 nuclei141Sm and143Gd

In (α,5n) in-beam γ- and electron measurements we have established high-spin states in the 3-neutronhole nuclei¹⁴¹Sm and¹⁴³Gd. Observed energy levels below 4 MeV are interpreted in terms of shell model configurations where the odd h_11/2 neutron hole couples to the N=80 core excitations containing one h_11/2 proton particle or one h_11/2 neutron hole. Higher-lying yrast states are built on a 23/2? level at Rd 3.2 MeV probably involving the πh ₁ ^2/2 guh ₁₁ ^2/?1 configUTa-tion.

Rotational and vibrational states in 115Te

High-spin states of the ¹¹⁵Te were studied by in-beam spectroscopy with the ⁸⁹Y (²⁹Si, p2n) fusion-evaporation reaction at a beam energy of 108 MeV. γ?γ coincidence and γ?γ angular correlation analyses were employed for determining the level scheme of ¹¹⁵Te. We have identified two vibrational-like bands built on the νh_11/2 and νg_7/2 quasiparticle states and the noncollective oblate states from the full alignment of quasiparticle configurations. In addition, a regular ΔI = 2 sequence with positive-parity was found for the first time in odd-A Te nuclei. This sequence is interpreted as a deformed structure resulting from three-quasiparticle alignment having the [π(g_7/2, h _11/2) ? ν(h _11/2)] configuration. Calculations of total Routhian surfaces and cranked shell model were performed and were used for assigning quasiparticle configurations to the states in ¹¹⁵Te.     

A 0.5 μs 10+ isomer in148Dy82 and the πh11/2 effectiveE 2 charge

In¹⁵²Gd(α,8n) and¹³⁶Ce(¹⁶O,4n) reaction studies a 48O ns 10⁺ isomer in¹⁴⁸Dy has teen identified, and its decay has been characterized. All members of the πh ₁₁ ^2/2 level spectrum have been located, and the 10⁺ → 8⁺ B(E2) value gives the πh ₁₁ ^2/2 effective charge as 1.53 e. The 2⁺ and 3^? level energies in¹⁴⁸Dy₈₂ provide supporting evidence for a shell closure at Z=64.     

High spin levels in141Sm

Excited states of¹⁴¹Sm up to spin I=63/2 have been identified by means of the reaction¹¹⁶Cd(²⁹)Si,4n at 128 MeV bombarding energy. The high spin level structure is discussed in terms of the coupling of a, h_11/2 -neutron hole to the N=80 core states. The importance of the πh_11/2)² contribution is stressed.     

First observation of yrast band in odd-odd 162Lu

High spin states of the odd-odd ¹⁶²Lu nucleus have been studied via ¹⁴⁷Sm(¹⁹F,4nγ)¹⁶²Lu reaction at 95 MeV beam energy. Level scheme for yrast band based on π[h_11/2]υ[i_13/2] quasiparticle configuration was established up to I^π=(23^?) for the first time. This band shows the signature inversion in energy before backbending generally appeared in this mass region. It is stressed that the signature splitting in ¹⁶²Lu is larger than that in the ¹⁶⁰Tm nucleus.     

High-spin states in 61Cu

The study of high spin states in ¹⁰⁰Pd has indicated the presence of both single particle and collective states. More than twenty new transitions have been observed. A substantial modification and extension of the existing level scheme is proposed. The negative parity states can be understood in terms of collective excitations of the core coupled to the 9^? and 5^? bandheads, which are probably based upon two quasineutron ν(h_11/2,g_7/2) and two quasiproton π(g_9/2,p_1/2) configurations respectively.     

Decays of millisecond isomers in odd-oddN=81 nuclei146Tb,148Ho and150Tm

Following reactions induced by 245 MeV⁶⁰Ni ions, isomers have been identified in the odd-oddN=81 isotones¹⁴⁶Tb,¹⁴⁸Ho and¹⁵⁰Tm with half-lives of 1.18(2), 2.35(4) and 5.2(3) ms, respectively. Their decays have been characterized byγ-ray spectroscopy. The isomers are interpreted as (πh _11/2 νh ₁ ^2/?1 ) 10⁺ states decaying to members ofπh _11/2 νd ₃ ^2/?1 andπh ₁₁ ^2/?1 multiplets. The observed level spectra and M1 branching ratios are found to be in good agreement with shell model predictions based on empirical and Schiffer-Trueπν ^?1 residual interactions.     

High resolution infrared study of the parallel band ν3 of chloroform CH35 Cl3

The infrared spectrum of chloroform in the region of the parallel fundamental band ν₃ around 367 cm^?1 has been measured with a Fourier spectrometer at a resolution of 0.001 cm^?1. An isotopically pure sample of CH³⁵Cl₃ was used. More than 5000 lines were assigned in the ν₃ band. A reanalysis of the ground state constants was performed by combining 1671 combination differences from this work, 712 differences from a previous study of the ν₂ band, and 80 millimetre wave lines from the literature. In the analysis of the ν₃ band, a model of an unperturbed symmetric top band was applied. The data were fitted with a standard deviation of 0.18 × 10^?3 cm^?1, and the following leading parameters were obtained: ν₀ = 367.295 550(8) cm^?1, B ₃—B ₀ = ?77.058(4) × 10^?6 cm^?1 and C ₃—C ₀ = ?18.600(11) × 10^?6 cm^?1. In addition, several hot bands have been studied. The isotopic effects were studied also by analysing spectra of the isotopically natural sample.     

High-K band structures in 164Er

High-spin states of the doubly-odd ¹¹²Sb were studied by in-beam spectroscopy using the ⁸⁸Sr (²⁸Si, p3n) and ⁸⁹Y (²⁹Si, α2n) fusion-evaporation reactions at beam energies of 120 and 108 MeV, respectively. γ?γ, charged particle-γ?γ coincidences, and γ?γ angular correlation analyses were employed for determining the level scheme of ¹¹²Sb. In the present work, all the levels except for low-lying states in ¹¹²Sb were newly established. Two ΔI = 1 strongly coupled bands were observed; one is a negative-parity band that is similar to those observed in the neighboring doubly-odd Sb isotopes and the other is a positive-parity band that has a new type structure not observed in the other isotopes. From the similarity of the properties of these ΔI = 1 bands to the bands built on 9/2⁺ 2p?1h states in the odd-A Sb isotopes, we suggest that these two ΔI = 1 bands should be associated with the [π(g_9/2)^?1 ? νh_11/2] and [π(g_9/2)^?1νg_7/2] configurations, respectively.     

Yrast states in the π- particle ν- hole nucleus 65 146 Tb81

The nucleus ¹⁴⁶Tb was studied from in beam γγ-and conversion electron measurements. The level scheme was established up to ～5MeV above the (πh_11/2 vd _3/2 ^?1 )_5? β-isomer. In addition to the known (πh_11/2 vh _11/2 ^?1 )₁₀₊ E3-isomer, the 8⁺ and 11⁺ members of this configuration were located. The levels at the yrast line are dominated by the couplings of the πh_11/2 vh _11/2 ^?1 valence nucleons to the collective 3^? octupole state and to the πh_11/2d _5/2 ^?1 and πh_11/2g _7/2 ^?1 particle-hole excitations of ¹⁴⁶Gd.
