Abstract

High spin states in {sup 196}Hg have been populated in the {sup 198}Pt({alpha},6n) reaction at 65 MeV and the level scheme has been extended. A new dipole band has been observed and a previously observed dipole has been confirmed. Excitation energies, spins and parities of these bands were determined from DCO ratio and linear polarization measurements. Possible quasiparticle excitations responsible for these structures are discussed.

Collective excitations in shape-transitional nuclei: investigations of /sup 196/Pt, /sup 198/Pt, and /sup 200/Hg by the (n,n'. gamma. )

Thesis/Dissertation Khan, A

The (n,n'..gamma..) reaction has been employed to study the level schemes of low-lying, low-spin states of the transitional nuclei /sup 196/Pt, /sup 198/Pt, and /sup 200/Hg. Multigram isotopically enriched samples of these isotopes were bombarded with neutrons of energies up to 3.5 MeV, and excitation functions and angular distributions were measured for promptly emitted ..gamma.. rays. Results from this investigation have permitted the placement of excited states and the assignment of spins and parities to many of these levels. Clarifications of spin-parity assignments for many previously known levels have been made. Relative transition probabilities were also deduced. Experimentally observed energiesmore »« less
New oblate band in [sup 196]Hg with quenched [ital M]1 strength

Journal Article Cederwall, B; Deleplanque, M; Azaiez, F; ... - Physical Review, C (Nuclear Physics); (United States)

High-spin states in the nucleus [sup 196]Hg were populated in the reaction [sup 192]Os([sup 9]Be,5[ital n]) at a beam energy of 65 MeV. A regular rotational-like [Delta][ital I]=1 band has been observed up to an excitation energy of [ital E][sup *][approx]8.7 MeV and spin [ital I][approx]30[h bar]. This is the second observation of a band of this character in a mercury isotope. The experimental results are compared with mean field calculations and semiclassical estimates based on the Doenau-Frauendorf formalism. The mercury bands show significantly lower [ital B]([ital M]1)/[ital B]([ital E]2) branching ratios as compared with similar bands in light leadmore »« less

Multi-quasiparticle bands in {sup 137}Ce

Journal Article Bhattacharjee, Tumpa; Chanda, Somen; Mukherjee, Anjali; ... - Physical Review. C, Nuclear Physics

Excited states of {sup 137}Ce, populated in the {sup 130}Te({sup 12}C,5n) reaction at a beam energy of 65 MeV, have been investigated by {gamma}{gamma} coincidence spectroscopy using a modest Clover Ge array. Unique spin-parity assignments have been made for most of the levels at high spin and excitation energy by using DCO ratios and polarization information. The known level scheme of {sup 137}Ce has been considerably revised on the basis of the new information. A sequence of M1 transitions, developed on the 5379.1-keV (33/2)({Dirac_h}/2{pi}) level has been suggested to be a positive-parity band through unambiguous assignment of multipolarity of 1124.1-more »« less

Weak coupling and dipole bands in {sup 191}Pb

Journal Article Fotiades, N; Cizewski, J; McNabb, D; ... - Physical Review, C

Excited states in the nucleus {sup 191}Pb have been investigated by in-beam {gamma}-ray spectroscopic techniques using the Gammasphere array. The reaction {sup 173}Yb({sup 24}Mg,6n) at a beam energy of 134.5 MeV was used to populate states of {sup 191}Pb. The level scheme of {sup 191}Pb has been extended up to 5.1 MeV excitation energy and spin 45/2. The lower part (below {approx}2.3MeV) presents the general features common in all odd-mass Pb isotopes, i.e., spherical states built on the 13/2{sup +} isomer, with bandlike structures that follow weak-coupling expectations. In the upper part of the level scheme two dipole bands aremore »« less

Journal Article Helppi, H; Saha, S; Daly, P; ... - Phys. Rev. C; (United States)

Levels in /sup 196/Hg have been studied by the /sup 196/Pt(..cap alpha..,4n) reaction and the high-spin level scheme of /sup 196/Hg has been considerably extended. Back-bending in both positive and negative parity yrast level sequences is discussed within the cranked shell model description.
