Band Structure of 68Ge
- 2001

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The nucleus Ge-68 has been studied by gamma-ray spectroscopy following its population at high spin in the reaction Ca-40(S-32,4p) Ge-68. The reaction channel was selected with the Microball array and gamma rays were detected with the Gammasphere array. The level scheme is very complex, reflecting the many different, and presumably mixed, excitation modes in this nucleus. Nevertheless, there appear to be some simplifications in the spin range above 18 (h) over bar where we have identified a superdeformed band and several terminating bands. The results are compared with a cranked Nilsson-Strutinsky model without pairing.

Strong population of a superdeformed band in Eu142
- 1995

Ingår i: Physical Review C. - 0556-2813. ; 52:1, s. 99-103

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- A superdeformed band has been found in Eu142. It is populated with 1.2(2)% of the total -ray intensity that decayed into Eu142 via the reaction Sn120(27Al,5n)142Eu at 152 MeV. The strength of the band is similar to that previously reported in Eu143, where the superdeformed band is populated with an intensity of 1.1(1)%. This is unexpected, since both total Routhian surface (TRS) and cranked modified oscillator (MO) calculations predict that the superdeformed band in Eu143 becomes yrast at lower spin than that in Eu142. This difference is 4Latin small letter h with stroke in the MO calculations and 8Latin small letter h with stroke in the TRS. Extrapolation of the normal-deformed yrast states in Eu143 shows, however, that a difference of 8Latin small letter h with stroke in spin corresponds to a change in the relative energy of the superdeformed and normal-deformed yrast lines of only 1 MeV.

Decay Out of the Doubly Magic Superdeformed Band in the N=Z Nucleus 60Zn
- 1999
-
Ingår i: Physical Review Letters. - 1079-7114. ; 82:17, s. 3400-3403
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The doubly magic superdeformed band in the N = Z nucleus Zn-60 has been identified. Linking transitions connecting this band to the yrast line provide the first spin, parity, and excitation energy measurements for superdeformed states in the A similar to 60 region. The stretched-E2 character and relatively large B(E2) values of these transitions suggest a nonstatistical decay-out process.

Observation and Quadrupole Moment Measurement of the First Superdeformed Band in the A~60 Mass Region
- 1997
-
Ingår i: Physical Review Letters. - 1079-7114. ; 79:7, s. 1233-1236
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- A high-spin rotational cascade of six gamma rays has been observed in Zn-62. The quadrupole moment of 2.7(-0.5)(+0.7) e b measured for this band corresponds to a deformation beta(2) = 0.45(-0.07)(+0.10). The properties of this band are in excellent agreement with calculations that predict high-spin superdeformed bands in Zn-62 with deformations beta(2) = 0.41-0.49. These results establish a new region of superdeformation for nuclei with neutron and proton numbers N, Z approximate to 30-32.

Smooth Termination of Rotational Bands in 62Zn: Evidence for a Loss of Collectivity
- 1998
-
Ingår i: Physical Review Letters. - 1079-7114. ; 80:12, s. 2558-2561
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Two sets of strongly coupled rotational bands have been identified in Zn-62. These bands have been observed up to the terminating states of their respective configurations. Lifetime measurements indicate that the transition quadrupole moments in these bands decrease as termination is approached. These results establish the first terminating states of rotational bands in the A similar to 60 mass region and confirm the predicted loss of collectivity associated with smooth band termination.

Superdeformation below [Formula Presented]
- 1996
-
Ingår i: Physical Review C - Nuclear Physics. - 0556-2813. ; 54:2, s. 454-458
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- A decoupled rotational band with an average dynamical moment of inertia [Formula Presented] [Formula Presented]/MeV has been observed to high spin in [Formula Presented] [Formula Presented]. The measured quadrupole moment of [Formula Presented] eb is as large as that of the superdeformed band in [Formula Presented]. The large deformation and decoupled character of the band suggests that the odd neutron occupies either the [Formula Presented] orbital or the [Formula Presented] intruder orbital. This is the first example of a superdeformed band extending to high spin below [Formula Presented], a neutron number that has long been considered as the boundary for superdeformation in the [Formula Presented] mass region.
