Investigation of ${}^{88}Y$ via ( $p, d γ$ ) reactions

Journal Article Hughes, R. O. ; Burke, J. T. ; Casperson, R. J. ; ... - Physical Review C

We studied the low-spin structure of odd-odd ⁸⁸Y via (p,dγ) reactions on an 89Y target. The K150 Cyclotron at the Texas A&M University Cyclotron Institute was employed to provide a 28.5-MeV proton beam, and particle-γ and particle-γ-γ coincidence data were collected with the STARLiTeR array. Moreover, a number of new levels and γ rays have been observed below 2.5 MeV, while level and γ-ray energies as well as spin-parity assignments have been re-evaluated.

Validating (d,p gamma) as a Surrogate for Neutron Capture

Journal Article Ratkiewicz, A. ; Cizewski, J. A. ; Pain, S. D. ; ... - EPJ Web of Conferences

The r-process is responsible for creating roughly half of the elements heavier than iron. It has recently become understood that the rates at which neutron capture reactions proceed at late times in the r-process may dramatically affect the final abundance pattern. However, direct measurements of neutron capture reaction rates on exotic nuclei are exceptionally difficult, necessitating the development of indirect approaches such as the surrogate technique. The (d,pγ) reaction at low energies was identified as a promising surrogate for the (n,γ) reaction, as both reactions share many characteristics. We report on a program to validate (d,pγ) as a surrogate formore »« less

First observation of low-energy γ-ray enhancement in the rare-earth region

Journal Article Simon, Anna ; Guttormsen, M. ; Larsen, A. C. ; ... - Physical Review C

Here, the γ-ray strength function and level density in the quasi-continuum of ^151,153Sm have been measured using bismuth germanate shielded Ge clover detectors of the STARLiTeR system. The Compton shields allow an extraction of the γ strength down to unprecedentedly low γ energies of ≈ 500 keV. For the first time an enhanced low-energy γ-ray strength has been observed in the rare-earth region. In addition, for the first time both the upbend and the well-known scissors resonance have been observed simultaneously for the same nucleus. Hauser-Feshbach calculations show that this strength enhancement at low γ energies could have an impactmore »« less
