Identification of the lowest 3/sup -/ collective level in /sup 116/Cd

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev., C; (United States)
..gamma.. rays from the /sup 116/Cd(p,p'..gamma..) reaction have been measured with a Ge(Li) detector from E/sub p/ = 5 to 20 MeV, and excitation functions of the decays of the 1917-, 1923-, and 1930-keV triplet to the 513-keV 2/sup +/ level have been extracted. Only the decay of the 1923-keV level has an excitation function consistent with a component predicted by a coupled-channel calculation for the excitation of a 3/sup -/ collective level. The sum of the cross sections for the remaining two ..gamma.. rays is 90% of that for the decay of the 1923-keV level at E/sub p/ = 5 MeV, decreasing to about 20% at 20 MeV.
