Abstract

We report on spectroscopic information and lifetime measurements of even-even neutron-rich Te isotopes. Excited states were populated in fast-neutron induced fission of U238 at the ALTO facility of IJCLab with the LICORNE neutron source and detected using the hybrid ν-ball spectrometer. We provide first results on lifetimes of the 61+ state in Te136 and the (61+), (41+), and (21+) states in Te138 and discuss the results in the context of large-scale shell-model calculations. The level schemes of Te136 and Te138 are revised in terms of lifetimes of their 21+,41+ states and updated information on the (42+) state in Te136 is presented. In addition, previously reported data on spectroscopy and lifetimes in Te134 are reexamined. This work provides new insights into the evolution of collectivity for Te isotopes with N=82,84,86.

Abstract

Prompt and delayed γ -ray spectroscopy of the neutron-rich 94 Kr was performed, as part of the fission campaign at the ALTO facility of the IPN Orsay, using the fast-neutron-induced fission reaction 238 U ( n , f ) in combination with the ν -Ball array, a novel hybrid γ spectrometer for energy and lifetime measurements. Several new yrast and nonyrast transitions were observed for the first time, extending the previously known level scheme. Additionally, we report on the observation of a new short-lived isomer at 3444 keV with a half-life of 32(3) ns. The analysis of the Nilsson orbitals obtained from Gogny cranked Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov calculations suggests a ( 9 − ) spin and an oblate deformation for this isomer corresponding to a two-quasineutron state, indicating an isomeric structure very similar to that of the neighboring isotones 96 Sr and 92 Se

Abstract

The β decay of 207Hg into the single-proton-hole nucleus 207Tl has been studied through γ-ray spectroscopy at the ISOLDE Decay Station (IDS) with the aim of identifying states resulting from coupling of the πs−11/2, πd−13/2, and πh−111/2 shell model orbitals to the collective octupole vibration. Twenty-two states were observed lying between 2.6 and 4.0 MeV, eleven of which were observed for the first time, and 78 new transitions were placed. Two octupole states (s1/2-coupled) are identified and three more states (d3/2-coupled) are tentatively assigned using spin-parity inferences, while further h11/2-coupled states may also have been observed for the first time. Comparisons are made with state-of-the-art large-scale shell model calculations and previous observations made in this region, and systematic underestimation of the energy of the octupole vibrational states is noted. We suggest that in order to resolve the difference in predicted energies for collective and noncollective t=1 states (t is the number of nucleons breaking the 208Pb core), the effect of t=2 mixing may be reduced for octupole-coupled states. The inclusion of mixing with t=0,2,3 excitations is necessary to replicate all t=1 state energies accurately.

Abstract

Lifetimes of excited states in $^{211}\mathrm{At}$ were measured using the electronic $\ensuremath{\gamma}\ensuremath{-}\ensuremath{\gamma}$ fast timing technique. The nucleus of interest was populated in a $^{208}\mathrm{Pb}(^{6}\mathrm{Li},3n)^{211}\mathrm{At}$ fusion-evaporation reaction at the FN Tandem accelerator of the Institute for Nuclear Physics, University of Cologne. The lifetimes of the $17/{2}_{1}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ and $23/{2}_{1}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ states were determined, together with an upper limit for the $13/{2}_{1}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ state. The experimental results are compared to two shell-model calculations, one using a semiempirical interaction for three particles in a single $j=9/2$ shell and the other using the modified Kuo-Herling interaction in a multi-$j$ model space.

Abstract

Mean lifetimes of yrast states of the isotopes 174,176,178,180Hf have been measured using fast- electronic scintillation timing. Excited states of 74,176,178Hf were populated via β decay, while 180Hf was populated via Coulomb excitation. The lifetimes of the 2+ 1 and 4+ 1 states of all isotopes and the lifetimes of the 6+ 1 states of 174,178Hf were measured, using the slope and the centroid shift methods. The mean lifetime, τ (4+ 1 ) = 85(13) ps, of 178Hf has been determined for the first time. In addition, the mean lifetimes of the 2− 1 and the 3− 1 states of 176Hf have been determined. Systematic uncertainties on the evolution of data as a function of neutron number were reduced by using the same setup for all the isotopes of interest. The data are in agreement with other recent lifetime measurements where available and shows a shift of the maximum of collectivity for the Hf isotopic chain from neutron midshell at N = 104 to N = 100.

Abstract

An experiment using the electronic gamma - gamma fast-timing technique was performed to measure lifetimes of the yrast states in Yb-170. The lifetime of the yrast 2(+) state was determined using the slope method. The value of t = 2.33(3) ns is in good agreement with the lifetimes measured using other techniques. The lifetimes of the first 4(+) and 6(+) states are determined using the generalized centroid difference method. The derived B(E2) values are compared to calculations done using the confined beta soft model and show good agreement with the experimental values. These calculations were extended to the isotonic chain N = 100 around Yb-170 and show a good quantitative description of the collectivity observed along it.

Abstract

Background: The available data for $E2$ transition strengths in the region between neutron-deficient hafnium and platinum isotopes are far from complete. More and precise data are needed to enhance the picture of structure evolution in this region and to test state-of-the-art nuclear models. In a simple model, the maximum collectivity is expected at the middle of the major shell. However, for actual nuclei, particularly in heavy-mass regions, which should be highly complex, this picture may no longer be the case, and one should use a more realistic nuclear-structure model. We address this point by studying the spectroscopy of Hf as a representative case.Purpose: We remeasure the ${2}_{1}^{+}$ half-lives of $^{172,174,176}\mathrm{Hf}$, for which there is some disagreement in the literature. The main goal is to measure, for the first time, the half-lives of higher-lying states of the rotational band. The new results are compared to a theoretical calculation for absolute transition strengths.Method: The half-lives were measured using $\ensuremath{\gamma}\text{\ensuremath{-}}\ensuremath{\gamma}$ and conversion-electron-$\ensuremath{\gamma}$ delayed coincidences with the fast timing method. For the determination of half-lives in the picosecond region, the generalized centroid difference method was applied. For the theoretical calculation of the spectroscopic properties, the interacting boson model is employed, whose Hamiltonian is determined based on microscopic energy-density functional calculations.Results: The measured ${2}_{1}^{+}$ half-lives disagree with results from earlier $\ensuremath{\gamma}\text{\ensuremath{-}}\ensuremath{\gamma}$ fast timing measurements, but are in agreement with data from Coulomb excitation experiments and other methods. Half-lives of the ${4}_{1}^{+}$ and ${6}_{1}^{+}$ states were measured, as well as a lower limit for the ${8}_{1}^{+}$ states.Conclusions: This work shows the importance of a mass-dependent effective boson charge in the interacting boson model for the description of $E2$ transition rates in chains of nuclei. It encourages further studies of the microscopic origin of this mass dependence. New experimental values on transition rates in nuclei from neighboring isotopic chains could support these studies.
