The charge radii of198Pt-183Pt

The reactions⁵⁸Ni+¹⁰²Pd→¹⁶⁰W and⁵⁸Ni+¹⁰⁶Cd→¹⁶⁴Os were investigated to search for new decay data of neutron deficient nuclei. Excitation energies of the compound nuclei covered a range from 47 to 89 MeV. Velocity separation of the evaporation residues and position time correlations with the a decays of the implanted nuclei were used. The following new decay data were measured:¹⁶²Os (E_α=(6611 ±30) keV, T_1/2=(1.9±0.7) ms);¹⁵⁸W (T_1/2=(0.9±0.3) ms);¹⁵⁸m_W (E=1.88 MeV, E_α=(8280±30) keV, T_1/2=(0.01-1) ms);^155mLu (E_α=(5575±10) keV); β decay of¹⁵⁶Ta (T_1/2 > 10 ms) to the 8⁺ yrast isomer in¹⁵⁶Hf. A cross section of 5μb was measured for the new isotope¹⁵⁶Ta produced in a p3n evaporation channel from¹⁶⁰W at 64 MeV excitation energy.
