Title: Triaxiality in the mid-shell nucleus 112Pd

Abstract

In this work, lifetimes of low-spin excited states in 112Pd were measured using the recoil-distance Doppler-shift technique. The nucleus of interest was populated in a 110Pd(18O, 16O) 112Pd reaction using the Cologne FN Tandem accelerator. Three lifetimes of ground-state band members and one lifetime of the γ band were measured. From these lifetimes reduced transition probabilities were extracted and compared to interacting boson model, γ-soft calculations, and Davydov calculations. The lifetime of the $$2_{γ}^{+}$$ gives some insights on the nuclear shape and structure of the γ band. The deduced transition rates show an indicator for a rigid triaxial nucleus as well as more indicators for a γ-soft nucleus.
