Abstract: | Delayed γ-ray spectra as well as time distributions have been measured applying the r.f.-γ method and the method of delayed γ-γ coincidences. Using the reaction 175Lu(α, 2n)177Ta, the half-lives of the levels at 70.6 and 73.6 keV in 177Ta have been determined as and , respectively. In further experiments, upper limits for the lifetimes of the and states in 171Lu and 173Lu were estimated. Comparisons of the experimental half-lives to Weisskopf and Nilsson model predictions are performed taking into account pairing correlations. For the calculations, a modified Nilsson Hamiltonian has been used. The hindrance factors obtained are summarized together with those deduced for corresponding transitions in neighbouring odd-proton nuclei. From the experimental results in 177Ta, conclusions have been drawn on the possible value of the constant k2 occurring in the magnetic dipole operator. |
