Medium-spin states in /sup 99/Mo

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. C; (United States)
The structure of /sup 99/Mo has been investigated via the /sup 96/Zr(..cap alpha..,n) reaction at bombarding energies between 10 and 18 MeV. Excitation functions and angular distributions of deexcitation ..gamma.. rays have been measured to provide information on the spins of levels deduced in ..gamma..-..gamma.. coincidence measurements carried out at 13 and 16 MeV. Several new medium-spin levels have been evinced from the present measurements and give a clear indication that collective features play an important role in defining the nuclear structure of /sup 99/Mo which can be considered as a typical transitional nucleus in the region around A = 100
