Proton transfer studies of /sup 172/Lu

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev., C; (United States)
The level structure of the odd-odd nuclide /sup 172/Lu has been studied by means of the (/sup 3/He, d) and (..cap alpha.., t) proton transfer reactions on /sup 171/Yb. The spectrum has been interpreted in terms of two-quasiparticle states formed by coupling the transferred proton with the 1/2/sup -/(521) neutron in the target ground state. Assignments have been proposed for the bands arising by parallel and antiparallel coupling of the target neutron with protons in the 7/2/sup +/(404), 1/2/sup -/(541), and 5/2/sup +/(402) Nilsson orbitals. Some evidence is also presented for the assignment of the )1/2/sup -/(521)/subn/ +- 9/2/sup -/(514)/subp/closing-brace levels. The Q value of the /sup 171/Yb(/sup 3/He, d)/sup 172/Lu reaction is measured to be -792 +- 34 keV, yielding a mass excess of -56700 +- 37 keV for /sup 172/Lu. (AIP)
