    • Shell structure and magic numbers in atomic nuclei were generally explained by pioneering work(1) that introduced a strong spin-orbit interaction to the nuclear shell model potential. However, knowledge of nuclear forces and the mechanisms governing the structure of nuclei, in particular far from stability, is still incomplete. In nuclei with equal neutron and proton numbers (N = Z), enhanced correlations arise between neutrons and protons (two distinct types of fermions) that occupy orbitals with the same quantum numbers. Such correlations have been predicted to favour an unusual type of nuclear superfluidity, termed isoscalar neutron-proton pairing(2-6), in addition to normal isovector pairing. Despite many experimental efforts, these predictions have not been confirmed. Here we report the experimental observation of excited states in the N = Z = 46 nucleus Pd-92. Gamma rays emitted following the Ni-58(Ar-36,2n)Pd-92 fusion-evaporation reaction were identified using a combination of state-of-the-art high-resolution c-ray, charged-particle and neutron detector systems. Our results reveal evidence for a spin-aligned, isoscalar neutron-proton coupling scheme, different from the previous prediction(2-6). We suggest that this coupling scheme replaces normal superfluidity (characterized by seniority coupling(7,8)) in the ground and low-lying excited states of the heaviest N = Z nuclei. Such strong, isoscalar neutron-proton correlations would have a considerable impact on the nuclear level structure and possibly influence the dynamics of rapid proton capture in stellar nucleosynthesis.

  • First identification of excited states in 106Te and evidence for isoscalar-enhanced vibrational collectivity
  • 2005

    • Gamma-ray transitions in the extremely neutron-deficient nucleus Te-106 have been identified for the first time. The experiment utilized the Fe-54(Fe-54,2n)Te-106(*) reaction, and the gamma-ray transitions from excited states in Te-106 were selected by use of the recoil-decay-tagging technique. The production cross section was estimated at 25 nb, a new limit for in-beam gamma-ray spectroscopy. A ground-state band tentatively extending up to I-pi=10(+) is proposed. The systematics of low-lying yrast states in the Te isotopes is discussed within the context of vibrational excitations and residual nucleon-nucleon interactions.

    • Gamma-ray transitions from excited states in Te-106 have been identified using the recoil decay tagging technique. The experiment which was the reaction Fe-54(Fe-54,2n)Te-106* was performed at the JYFL accelerator facility at the University of Jyvaskyla, Finland. The production cross section was estimated at 25 nb, a new limit for in-beam gamma-ray spectroscopy. A tentative level structure for the ground state band of Te-106 is proposed.

    • Excited states in the highly neutron deficient odd-odd nucleus Ir-170 have been investigated. The experiment was performed using the Sn-112(Ni-60, pn)Ir-170 reaction and employing the recoil-decay tagging technique. Gamma rays were detected using the JUROGAM gamma-ray spectrometer and those belonging to Ir-170 were selected based on recoil identification provided by the RITU gas-filled recoil separator and the GREAT spectrometer at the RITU focal plane. A partial level scheme of Ir-170 is presented for the first time. New alpha-decay branches are assigned to Ir-170 and a tentative level structure for Re-166 is deduced from a study of the alpha-decay fine structure and the associated alpha-gamma correlations.

  • First identification of excited states in 169Ir

  • Ingår i: Physical Review C. Nuclear Physics. - 0556-2813 .- 1089-490X. ; 75:5, s. 054321-

    • Gamma rays populating the alpha-decaying isomeric state in Ir-169 have been observed for the first time. The experiment employed the recoil-decay tagging method using the JUROGAM gamma-ray spectrometer, the RITU gas-filled recoil separator and the GREAT spectrometer located at the RITU focal plane. The gamma-ray cascade feeding the isomeric alpha-decaying state exhibits a rotational structure consistent with a h(11/2) proton coupled to a triaxially deformed core. The experimental results are compared with predictions from total Routhian surface calculations.

  • Excited states in the neutron-deficient nuclei Rn-197,Rn-199,Rn-201

    • Excited states of the extremely neutron-deficient radon isotopes with N = 111, 113, 115 have been studied for the first time in a series of in-beam experiments performed at the Accelerator Laboratory of the University of Jyvaskyla. The reactions used were: Sn-118(Kr-82, 3n)Rn-197, Sn-120(Kr-82, 3n)Rn-199, Sm-150(Cr-52, 3n)Rn-199, and Sn-122(Kr-82, 3n)Rn-201. The gamma rays emitted from excited states in the different isotopes were identified using the recoil-alpha-decay tagging technique. The estimated cross section for the production of Rn-197(m) was 7(3) nb, which is the lowest cross section reported so far for an in-beam study. The energies of the (17/2(+)) levels built on the isomeric (13/2(+)) states in Rn-197,Rn-199,Rn-201 indicate a transition from an anharmonic vibrational structure toward a rotational structure at low spins for these nuclei. However, the transition is not as sharp as predicted by theory.

  • gamma-ray spectroscopy of At-197

  • Ingår i: Physical Review C. Nuclear Physics. - 0556-2813 .- 1089-490X. ; 78:4, s. 044328-1-044328-8

    • Excited states of the extremely neutron-deficient nucleus At-197 have been studied in an in-beam experiment using the fusion-evaporation reaction Sn-118(Kr-82,p2n)At-197. gamma rays belonging to At-197 feeding the I-pi=(9/2(-)) ground state, as well as gamma rays feeding the 311-keV I-pi=(13/2(+)) isomer, decaying via the emission of gamma rays, and the 52-keV I-pi=(1/2(+)) alpha-decaying isomer have been identified using the recoil-alpha-decay tagging technique. Total Routhian surface calculations predict a near-spherical shape for the (9/2(-)) ground state and oblate shapes with beta(2) around -0.2 for the (1/2(+)) and the (13/2(+)) states. These predictions agree with our experimental findings.

  • Lifetime measurements of excited states in 165Lu and 107Cd
  • 2006
  • Licentiatavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • Measuring lifetimes of excited nuclear states can give important information on the internal structure of the nucleus. This thesis is based on two experiments performed in Italy and in the USA in order to deduce the lifetimes of excited states in 165Lu and 107Cd. The lifetimes were measured using the Recoil Distance Method and the reduced transition probabilities between states have been calculated from the lifetimes in a model independent way. In the analysis of the data from the experiment on 165Lu, the shape of the nucleus is investigated using a collective rotational model to describe the observed excited states. A possibility of a triaxial shape of this nucleus is discussed. In the second experiment the obtained reduced transition probabilities for the nucleus 107Cd are compared to theoretical predictions for vibrational and rotational excitation modes

  • Lifetime measurements of normal deformed states in Lu-165(71)
  • 2005
  • Ingår i: Physical Review C. Nuclear Physics. - 0556-2813 .- 1089-490X. ; 71:1, s. 121-127

    • Picosecond lifetimes of medium spin states in Lu-165 were measured for the first time. The reaction used to populate the nucleus of interest was La-139(Si-30,4n)Lu-165 at a beam energy of 135 MeV. The beam was provided by the XTU-tandem accelerator of Laboratori Nazionali di Legnaro, Italy. By using the differential decay curve method, lifetimes of 19 states in four different rotational bands were obtained. Therefrom the B(E2) values and the transitional quadrupole moments were deduced. The obtained Q(t) for the different bands are compared with total Routhian surface (TRS) calculations and particle-rotor-model calculations. The TRS calculations predict different axial symmetric shapes for the bands built on the 9/2(-)[514], 9/2(+)[404], and 1/2(-)[541] configurations, with a gamma softness for the 9/2(-)[514] configuration. This band has also been studied using the particle-rotor model, the results of which, however, are consistent with a triaxial shape with a gamma value of -15(p).

  • Low-spin collective behavior in the transitional nuclei Mo-86,Mo-88
  • 2007
  • Ingår i: Physical Review C. Nuclear Physics. - 0556-2813 .- 1089-490X. ; 76:1, s. 014307-
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Low-spin structures in Mo-86,Mo-88 were populated using the Ni-58(Ar-36, x alpha yp) heavy-ion fusion-evaporation reaction at a beam energy of 111 MeV. Charged particles and gamma rays were emitted in the reactions and detected by the DIAMANT CsI ball and the EXOGAM Ge array, respectively. In addition to the previously reported low-to-medium spin states in these nuclei, new low-spin structures were observed. Angular correlation and linear polarization measurements were performed in order to unambiguously determine the spins and parities of intensely populated states in Mo-88. Quasiparticle Random Phase Approximation (QRPA) calculations were performed for the first and second excited 2(+) states in Mo-86 and Mo-88. The results are in qualitative agreement with the experimental results, supporting a collective interpretation of the low-spin states for these transitional nuclei.
