Abstract: | Using56Co sources, a 3.254 MeV level in238U was photoexcited by aγ-line emitted in the decay of the 4.100 MeV level in56Fe. 10γ-transitions deexciting this 3.254 MeV level were identified. Spin and parity were determined to be 1−. By moving the56Co source in a high speed centrifuge the profile of the 3.254 MeV emission line was investigated. By applying a new variety of Doppler shift analysis a lifetime ofτ
Fe=55±25fs was obtained for the 4.100 MeV level in56Fe. The cross section for nuclear resonance fluorescence yields a lifetime ofτ
U
=0.33±0.12 ps for the 3.254 MeV level in238U. |
