Abstract: | The energy levels of 234U and 236U have been studied through the inelastic scattering of 16 MeV douterons. A magnetic spectrograph was used to momentum-analyse the scattered deuterons at θ = 90° and 125°. Excited in both 234U and 236U were the ground state bands up to and including the 8+ members, the Kπ = 0+β-vibrations, the Kπ = 2+γ-vibrations, and the Kπ = 0? octupole vibrational bands. In 234U, additional levels at 1023 and 1126 keV are ascribed to a Kπ = 2? band, levels at 1238, 1312, and 1446 keV are identified as members of either a Kπ = 0? or 1? configuration, and other tentative assignments are made for members of Kπ = 1? and 3? configurations. Relative reduced transition probabilities, B(E2), to the 2+ rotational and γ-vibrational states are generally found to be in good agreement with Coulomb excitation measurements. Relative B(E3) values for the 3? states excited are slightly higher than the predictions of a microscopic theory of octupole vibrations. |
