A PAIR OF IDENTICAL SUPERDEFORMED BANDS IN ND-136
- 1995

- High-spin states in Nd-136 were populated via the Mo-100(Ar-40, 4n) reaction at beam energies of 176 and 182 MeV, and resulting gamma-rays were detected using the GAMMASPHERE spectrometer. Analysis of the data has revealed the existence of an excited superdeformed (SD) band in Nd-136. Th, yrast SD band in Nd-136 has been extended by the addition of four (possibly five) transitions at high frequency. The new band displays the remarkable property of having transition energies identical (to within +/- 1 keV) to those of the half-points of the yrast SD band of Nd-136. Possible explanations in terms of cranked Woods-Saxon single-particle calculations are discussed.

LOW-SPIN TERMINATION OF THE SUPERDEFORMED BAND IN ND-135
- 1995

- The decay of the superdeformed (SD) band in Nd-135 was studied with the early implementation of gamma-sphere. The results suggest that the SD band ''terminates'' at spin 25/2. This termination is explained by a change of the SD minimum toward a triaxial lower deformation. Ultimate cranker calculations with the i(13/2) orbital occupied relate this change to a shift of a proton and neutron pair out of deformation-driving Nilsson orbitals. This is a completely new and unexpected mechanism for the decay of SD bands.

ONSET OF COLLECTIVITY IN NEUTRON-DEFICIENT PO-196,PO-198

- We have studied via in-beam gamma-ray spectroscopy Po-196 and Po-198, which are the first neutron-deficient Po isotopes to exhibit a collective low-lying structure. The ratios of yrast state energies and the E2 branching ratios of transitions from non-yrast to yrast states are indicative of a low-lying vibrational structure. The onset of collective motion in these isotopes can be attributed to the opening of the neutron i(13/2) orbital at N approximate to 112 and the resulting large overlap between the two valence protons in the h(9/2) orbital and the valence neutrons in the i(13/2) orbital.

MEASUREMENT OF ULTRA-FAST GAMMA-RAY TRANSITIONS FROM HEAVY-ION COMPOUND NUCLEUS REACTIONS
- 1995

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- A method for correcting target-thickness-induced Doppler broadening in gamma-ray spectra from weakly populated, very short-lived (femtosecond) states is presented. The method is illustrated by an analysis of superdeformed transitions in Dy-152,Dy-153 for which the validity of the procedure could be verified consistently from previous lifetime measurements in Dy-152. Furthermore, estimates of the superdeformed lifetimes, previously not measured in Dy-153, are obtained.

NEW FEATURES OF SUPERDEFORMED BANDS IN HG-194
- 1994

- Two new features of superdeformed (SD) bands in the A almost-equal-to 190 region emerge from a study of Hg-194 with the Gammasphere detector array. A decrease of the dynamic moment of inertia is observed for rotational frequencies HBARomega greater-than-or-equal-to 0.4 MeV, confirming long standing expectations based on mean field calculations with pairing. Evidence for a small staggering in the SD transition energies is also observed, suggesting the presence of terms with fourfold symmetry in the SD Hamiltonian.

NEW OBLATE BAND IN HG-196 WITH QUENCHED M1 STRENGTH
- 1993
-

- High-spin states in the nucleUs Hg-196 were populated in the reaction (Os(Be,5n))-Os-192 at a beam energy of 65 MeV. A regular rotational-like DELTAI = 1 band has been observed up to an excitation energy of E* almost-equal-to 8.7 MeV and spin I almost-equal-to 30hBAR. This is the second observation of a band of this character in a mercury isotope. The experimental results are compared with mean field calculations and semiclassical estimates based on the Donau-Frauendorf formalism. The mercury bands show significantly lower B(M1)/B(E2) branching ratios as compared with similar bands in light lead nuclei. This difference may be more readily explained by a difference in single-particle structure rather than by large differences in deformation between the lead and mercury configurations.

PROPERTIES OF SUPERDEFORMED BANDS IN DY-153
- 1995
-
Ingår i: Physics Letters B. - : Elsevier BV. - 0370-2693 .- 1873-2445. ; 346:3-4, s. 244-250

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Two new superdeformed (SD) bands in Dy-153, in addition to the three previously observed, have been studied with the GAMMASPHERE detector array. Assignments to single-neutron orbits in the SD potential are made based on the band properties. Evidence for a band interaction at very high spins, possibly involving the first N = 7 proton intruder orbital, is observed in the strongest populated SD band. Furthermore, evidence far a Delta I = 2 staggering is also found in this SD band.

EVIDENCE FOR M1 TRANSITIONS BETWEEN SUPERDEFORMED STATES IN HG-193

- Two-way decay has been observed between superdeformed bands in Hg193. it is proposed the decays have M 1 multipolarity and connect signature partner bands. Candidates for the two-way gamma decays connecting superdeformed bands are observed for the first time.
