Abstract

The structure of the A/Z = 3 nucleus 15B has been investigated using the in-beam $\gamma$ -spectroscopy technique with a fragmentation reaction of a 36S beam on a 9Be target at 77.5 ${\rm MeV}\cdot A$ . The fragments were identified and selected by their energy loss and time of flight using the SPEG spectrograph. $\gamma$ -ray energies and intensities have been measured in coincidence with the projectile-like fragments. From this information as well as from the $\gamma\gamma$ -coincidence relationships a level scheme is proposed for 15B up to the neutron separation energy. The experimental results have been interpreted using shell model calculations in the psd valence space. Effects of the weakly bound nature of the valence neutrons have been observed.

Abstract

High spin states in ${}^{193}\mathrm{Tl}$ have been populated by the ${}^{181}\mathrm{Ta}{(}^{16}\mathrm{O},6n)$ reaction at 110 MeV and \ensuremath{\gamma}-ray spectroscopy was performed using the EUROGAM II array. In addition to the two known superdeformed (SD) bands, three new superdeformed bands have been identified. The dynamic moments of inertia of two of these new bands display a sudden and opposite change of slope and two of them have identical transition energies within 2 keV. The behavior of their dynamic moments of inertia and their \ensuremath{\gamma} transitions allowed us to propose configurations for the proton orbitals involved around the SD shell closure $Z=80.$ The intrinsic proton states identified are the two signature partners of the $[411]1/2$ and the negative signature of the $[651]1/2$ orbitals. Their properties are compared to the predictions of two theoretical calculations.

Abstract

The nucleus195Pb has been populated with the184W+16O reaction at 113 MeV. Two dipole γ-ray cascades have been observed using the EUROGAM spectrometer. A comprehensive level scheme related to these structures has been established. Multiparticle configurations are attributed to these high-spin structures from detailed comparison with the neighbouring nuclei,193Hg,194Pb and195Tl. Band crossings due to i13/2 neutron pair breaking are observed in195Pb at about the same frequencies as in the isotone193Hg.

Abstract

Dipole transitions linking the superdeformed Yrast signature-partner bands in 195Tl have been observed using the EUROGAM 1 spectrometer. From the measurements of the photon decay branching ratios, taken together with the average quadrupole moment measured in neighbouring superdeformed nuclei, we find that the two signature partner superdeformed bands involve the excitation of the 81 st proton into the i 13 2 Ω= 5 2 intruder orbital

Abstract

A new superdeformed band is reported in 193Hg which has properties that are consistent with it being based on the unfavoured N = 7 (π, α) = (−, +12) intruder orbital. The signature splitting at hω = 200 keV of this intruder orbital and its favoured (−, −12) partner is estimated to be 160±30 keV, which is in agreement with cranked mean field calculations. This band completes the set of low-lying quasi-neutron orbitals predicted to be at the N = 113 superdeformed Fermi-surface. The previously known superdeformed bands in 193Hg have been extended to higher rotational frequencies, hω ⩾ 0.40 MeV.

Abstract

Two regular dipole gamma -ray cascades have been observed in 194Pb. A comprehensive level scheme related to these structures has been built and first members of rotational bands built on K=8 and K=11 two-proton oblate states have been identified. From the excitation energies, spin values, behaviours of the moments of inertia and alignments, and from the comparison with the isotone 192Hg, multiparticle configurations can be attributed to three high-spin structures of 194Pb built respectively on the 4966 keV, 4334 keV and 6198 keV levels: ( pi 9/2(505) pi 13/2(606))(vi13/2)2, ( pi 9/2(505) pi 13/2(606))(vf5/2vi13/2), ( pi 9/2(505) pi 13/2(606)) (vf5/2(vi13/2)3). Within this interpretation, the regular dipole bands correspond to the presence of two or three i13/2 decoupled neutrons.

Abstract

High spin states of189Au were populated via the174Yb (19F, 4n reaction at 86, 90, 95 and 100 MeV beam energies. The study of the relative population of oblate and prolate structures shows a striking disappearance of the prolate band relative to the oblate ones as the beam energy goes from 86 to 100 MeV.

Abstract

A subset of the Eurogam array has been used to investigate the decay out of the superdeformed (SD) band in 194Pb. Two new band members and a new decay pattern into the low lying states at normal deformation (ND) have been established for this band. In the level scheme at normal deformation, the linking transitions between the previously known floating ΔI = 1 sequence and the lower states have been established for the first time. In this talk we will also report on the preliminary results of the search for the linking transitions between the SD and ND states in 192Hg with the fully operational EUROGAM array.

Abstract

The 99−105Tc isotopes have been produced at high spin as fission fragments following the fusion reaction 37Cl(170 MeV) + 176Yb and studied with the Euroball3 array. The high-spin structures of 103Tc have been identified for the first time. From the systematics of the yrast states of 97−105Tc, the location of individual proton states can be analyzed as a function of the neutron number.

Abstract

High-spin states have been studied in 101Tc produced as a fission fragment in the reaction 176Yb +28Si at 145 MeV. Gamma rays were detected with the EUROGAM2 array. The level scheme of 101Tc has been extended up to 4.2 MeV excitation energy and several band structures are observed. Configurations are assigned to two new bands on the basis of their behaviour and of cranked Hartree-Fock-Bogolyubov calculations.

Abstract

The structure of N19-22 nuclei was investigated by means of in-beam gamma-ray spectroscopic technique using fragmentation reactions of both stable and radioactive beams. Based on particle-gamma and particle-gamma gamma coincidence data, level schemes are constructed for the neutron-rich nitrogen nuclei. The experimental results are compared with shell model calculations. The strength of the N=14 and Z=8 shell closures and the weakening of the shell model interaction WBT are discussed.

Abstract

The high-spin normally deformed and superdeformed states of ${}^{194}\mathrm{Hg}$ have been populated in an exit channel of the ${}^{16}{\mathrm{O}+}^{186}\mathrm{W}$ reaction at 110 MeV bombarding energy. The Doppler shift analysis of the energies of the \ensuremath{\gamma} transitions de-exciting both normally deformed and superdeformed states in ${}^{194}\mathrm{Hg}$ indicates a lower recoil velocity of the ${}^{194}\mathrm{Hg}$ nucleus compared to that of the ${}^{196}\mathrm{Pb}$ nucleus obtained from the $6n$ exit channel of the complete-fusion compound nucleus. This suggests that incomplete fusion plays the main role in the population of normally deformed and superdeformed states of ${}^{194}\mathrm{Hg}$ in this reaction.

Abstract

Nuclear structure of the neutron rich {sup 25-29}Ne nuclei has been investigated through the in-beam {gamma}-ray spectroscopy technique using fragmentation reactions of both stable and radioactive beams. Level schemes have been deduced for these Ne isotopes. In order to examine the importance of intruder fp configurations, they are compared to shell model calculations performed either in the restricted sd or in the larger sdpf valence space. The {sup 25,26}Ne and {sup 27}Ne nuclei were found to be in agreement with the sd shell model calculations, whereas {sup 28}Ne exhibits signatures of the intruder fp shell contribution.

Abstract

Gamma-ray production cross sections have been measured for gamma-ray lines copiously emitted in the $^3$He bombardment of $^{16}$O nuclei: the 937, 1042 and 1081 keV lines of $^{18}$F and the 1887 keV line of $^{18}$Ne. Four Ge detectors with BGO shielding for Compton suppression were used to measure the angular distributions of the gamma-rays. The excitation functions have been obtained for $^3$He bombarding energies from 3.7 to 36 MeV. Total cross sections are tabulated for calculations relevant to gamma-ray astronomy. The importance of these lines as diagnosis for the presence and properties of accelerated $^3$He in solar flares is discussed in light of the measured cross sections.

Abstract

The structure of the N ≃28 45,46 18 Ar 27,28 nuclei has been investigated through in-beam γ -ray spectroscopy using the fragmentation reaction of a 60 A MeV 48 Ca beam on a thin Be target. γ -ray energies, intensities, γγ coincidences and γ -ray angular anisotropies have been measured. The level scheme of 45 Ar is proposed for the first time, while that of 46 Ar has been extended to states above the previously known 2 + first excited state. An isomeric state at 537 keV of 0.34 +0.32 −0.15 ns lifetime has been found in 45 Ar from the line-shape analysis of the γ ray connecting the first excited state to the ground state. The experimental results are interpreted using shell-model calculations.

Abstract

The structure of neutron-rich ${}^{40,42,44}\mathrm{S}$ nuclei has been investigated through in-beam $\ensuremath{\gamma}$-ray spectroscopy using the fragmentation reaction of a 60 MeV A ${}^{48}\mathrm{Ca}$ beam on a thin Be target. ${E}_{\ensuremath{\gamma}},$ ${I}_{\ensuremath{\gamma}},$ $\ensuremath{\gamma}\ensuremath{\gamma}$-coincidence, and $\ensuremath{\gamma}$-ray angular distributions were measured for each produced fragment. The level schemes previously containing only a single $\ensuremath{\gamma}$ transition were extended, and spin values were proposed for the new states. The experimental results were interpreted by use of microscopic collective-model and large-scale shell-model calculations. The results of the model calculations are consistent with each other, and give a reasonable description of the experimental results. Both models predict an erosion of the $N=28$ shell closure at $Z=16$ and suggest a deformed ground state for ${}^{40,42}\mathrm{S}$ and a spherical-deformed mixed configuration for ${}^{44}\mathrm{S}.$

Abstract

The structure of neutron-rich light nuclei around N = 20 and 28 has been investigated at GANIL by means of in-beam gamma-spectroscopy using fragmentation reactions of 36S and 48Ca beams on a Be target. Gamma-decay of relatively high-lying excited states have been measured for the first time in nuclei around 32Mg and 44S. Level schemes are proposed and discussed for a large number of these neutron-rich nuclei around N = 20 and N = 28.

Abstract

High-spin states in 113-116Cd have been investigated with the fusion-fission reaction 28Si +176Yb at 145 > MeV. The experiment has been performed with the Eurogam2 array. New rotational bands based on two quasi-particle states have been observed for even-even cadmium isotopes. A new level scheme based on the 11/2− isomeric state is proposed for 115Cd and the one of 113Cd has been extended to spin (31/2−). The decoupled bands identified in both odd-A nuclei are interpreted as being built upon a low-Ωh11/2 quasi-neutron configuration. Microscopic Hartree-Fock + BCS calculations confirm the prolate deformation in this mass region especially for the odd cadmium isotopes.

Abstract

Information and Communication Technologies change the way people consider information and knowledge. Their use in e-learning raises orientation problems while navigating within technological devices. First of all, the learner-subject must locate the tools and services at his disposal during all of the training. To help orientation, resorting to the spatial metaphor is frequent. This research is based on results of some empirical survey. It is the opportunity of questioning oneself as to the limits of this type of metaphor by studying mental representations that users may have. Solutions could be brought by making spatial metaphor intervene more as a tool of information processing than as a tool of software localization.

Abstract

Three mini-orange conversion–electron spectrometers and four Euroball Ge Cluster detectors have been used for γ–e- coincidence spectroscopy of superdeformed 135Nd. Transitions within the superdeformed band are shown to have the expected E2 multipolarity. The 766.5–keV transition which links the band to a positive-parity state has a conversion coefficient consistent with M1 multipolarity. Consequently, positive parity is deduced for the superdeformed band. No evidence for E0 transitions was found.

Abstract

The study of the superdeformed (SD)196Pb nucleus has been revisited using the Eurogam Phase 2 spectrometer. All of the three observed excited SD bands were found to decay to the yrast SD band through, presumably,E1 transitions, allowing relative spin and excitation energy assignments. Comparisons with calculations using the random-phase approximation suggest that all three excited bands can be interpreted as octupole vibrational structures.

All of the three excited bands were found to decay to the yrast SD band through presumably E1 transitions. Comparisons with calculations using RPAapproximation indicate that the excited bands can be interpreted as octupole-vibrational structures.

Abstract

High angular momentum states in {sup 195{minus}197}Bi are populated in two reactions: {sup 183}W({sup 19}F,{ital xn}){sup 202{minus}{ital x}}Bi and {sup 181}Ta({sup 20}Ne,{ital xn}){sup 201{minus}{ital x}}Bi at beam energies of 108 and 123 MeV, respectively. Gamma rays were detected using the Gammasphere array. Three weakly populated rotational sequences have been found. They each have properties characteristic of other superdeformed bands in this mass region. On the basis of cross-bombardment information we believe that one band belongs to each of {sup 195}Bi, {sup 196}Bi, and {sup 197}Bi. The properties of the bands in the odd-Bi nuclei are best reproduced if the odd proton occupies the favored signature of the [651]1/2 orbital, while the band in {sup 196}Bi has this same proton configuration coupled to an additional {ital N}=7 ({ital j}{sub 15/2}) neutron. The relative behavior of the @F {ital I}{sup (2)} moments of inertia can be qualitatively understood in terms of Pauli-blocking effects. {copyright} {ital 1996 The American Physical Society.}

Abstract

An excited superdeformed (SD) band has been observed in 192Hg with the UROGAM spectrometer. It is interpreted as a two quasi-neutron excitation in the 192Hg SD nucleus. Nuclear level lifetimeshave been measured using the Dopple-shift attenuation method. An average transition quadrupole moment of 19.5 ± 1.5 b has been obtained which is similar to the value measured in the yeast SD band. These results indicate that the deformation in the 192Hg SD nucleus is stable despite changes in the occupancy of high-N-orbitals.

Abstract

A controversy has arisen over the existence, or not, of a superdeformed rotational band in192Pb. We have carried out an experiment using the168Er(3OSi, 6n)192Pb reaction at 159 MeV and have observed the coincidentγ rays in the EUROGAM 2 spectrometer. We confirm the original result of Henry et al. that a superdeformed band exists in192Pb.

Abstract

High angular-momentum states in [sup 196,197]Bi were populated in the reaction [sup 183]W ([sup 19]F,[ital xn]) at a beam energy of 108 MeV, and [gamma] rays were detected with the Gammasphere array. Two weakly populated rotational bands, with energy spacings characteristic of superdeformation have been found. Both cascades can be assigned unambiguously to the Bi nuclei; however, their isotopic assignment to [sup 197]Bi is tentative. The properties of the bands and their possible structures are discussed. Our results represent the first identification of superdeformed bands in a nucleus of the [ital A][similar to]190 mass region with [ital Z][gt]82.

Abstract

Internal conversion coefficients have been determined from online measurement of electron- and y- ray emission related to the dipole transitions in the so-called oblate collective bands in199Pb.The results strongly support the M1 (or M1+E2) character of these transitions.

Abstract

The high efficiency of the new-generation of γ-arrays as EUROGAM or GAMMASPHERE makes reachable the fission limit in angular momentum of the nuclei populated by means of heavy ion reactions in the A ≈ 190 mass region. This is established by the strong correlation between the fissility parameters Z2/A and the spin values of the state of highest energy observed in the yrast superdeformed bands.

Abstract

We have investigated the structure of the superdeformed band in 135Nd using conversion-electron spectroscopy. The transitions within the superdeformed band show conversion coefficients which are consistent with an E2 multipolarity. From the conversion coefficients of transitions linking this band with known low-lying states its positive parity was established. Hence, a direct determination of the parity of a high-spin superdeformed band could be performed for the first time.

Abstract

New results on the192Hg superdeformed band have been obtained with EUROGAM. The experiment has been performed with the160Gd(36S,4n) reaction at 159 MeV. Above 800 keV the γ-ray energies differ from the previously published ones. Thus the rise of the dynamical moment of inertia\(\mathfrak{F}^{(2)} \) above ħω=0.4 MeV is no longer observed. This is in better agreement with recent cranked Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov calculations.

Abstract

Recent data from the EUROGAM array have revealed the population of the yrast superdeformed (SD) band of192Hg in the α4n exit channel of the16O+184W reaction at 113 MeV beam energy. The nucleus assignment was made on the basis of the SD band transition energies, and the observation of characteristic X-rays and lowlying yrast γ-transition of192Hg in coincidence with the SD band γ-rays. Both the feeding and decay-out patterns of the observed SD band have been found similar to the ones previously measured in the (36S,4n) reaction.

Abstract

The yrast superdeformed (SD) structure of 194Pb has been studied using the EUROGAM γ-ray spectrometer. New results have been obtained at low as well as at high spin values. At low frequency, the SD band has been extended to the lowest-spin SD state ever observed in the A ∼ 190 region. The energies of 194Pb and 192Hg SD bands are identical for ω < 0.25 MeV. However, they diverge for higher frequency, which rules out the idea that these two SD bands are identical. Moreover, the SD band of 194Pb is populated at lower spin values than that of 192Hg and de-excites towards normally-deformed (ND) states at a spin value lower than that of 192Hg. This suggests that the barrier separating the SD and ND minima in the potential energy surface is higher in 194Pb than in 192Hg.
