Neutroneneinfangs-Gammaspektrum und Niveauschema von Erbium 167

The (n, γ)-spectrum of Er 167 was investigated by means of the Risø bent crystal spectrometer. The energies and intensities of 47 transitions were measured. 22 of them were fitted into a level scheme. The rotational bands of theK=7/2⁺[633],K=1/2^?[521], andK=5/2^?[512] states were found up to the spin valuesI=11/2⁺, 9/2^?, and 7/2^?. Gammavibrational states of these Nilsson orbitals were determined or proposed. The energy of theK=5/2^?[523] state was suggested. Branching ratios of gamma transitions were compared with theoretical predictions.
