- The nuclear structure of neutron-rich nuclei close to the double-magic nucleus Ni-78 has been investigated by measuring the lifetime of excited states. In this contribution, it will be presented the lifetime of the J(pi) = 7/2(-) excited state at 981 keV of the Cu-71 isotope, measured using the AGATA Demonstrator coupled to the PRISMA spectrometer and the Koln plunger setup. This is the first time this combined setup has been used for a lifetime measurement.

- Linear polarization and angular correlations of gamma-rays depopulating excited states in the neutron-deficient nucleus Ru-94(44)50 have been measured, enabling firm spin-parity assignments for several excited states in this nucleus. The deduced multipolarities of strong transitions in the yrast structure were found to be mostly of stretched M1, E1, and E2 types and, in most cases, in agreement with previous tentative assignments. The deduced multipolarity of the 1869 keV and the connecting 257 and 1641 keV transitions indicates that the state at 6358 keV excitation energy has spin parity 12(1)(-) rather than 12(3)(+) as proposed in previous works. The presence of a 12(1)(-) state is interpreted within the framework of large-scale shell-model calculations as a pure proton-hole state dominated by the pi(p(1/2)(-1)circle times g(9/2)(-5)) and pi(p(3/2)(-1) g(9/2)(-5)) configurations. A new positive-parity state is observed at 6103 keV and is tentatively assigned as 12(2)(+). The 14(1)(-) state proposed earlier is reassigned as 13(4)(-) and is interpreted as being dominated by neutron particle-hole core excitations. The strengths of several E1 transitions have been measured and are found to provide a signature of core-excited configurations.

Spectroscopy of the neutron-deficient N=50 nucleus Rh-95

- The neutron-deficient semimagic (neutron number N = 50) Rh-95 nucleus has been produced at high spins using the projectile-target system Ca-40 + Ni-58 at 125 MeV beam energy. The gamma-decays of levels populated by the 3p fusion evaporation reaction channel were studied using gamma-gamma coincidences, and 20 new gamma-ray transitions involving 15 new positive-and negative-parity states were observed. Spin and parity for many of the excited states were firmly deduced for the first time using the combined directional angular correlation and direction-polarization techniques. The observed structures are discussed within the framework of large-scale shell model calculations. E1 transition strengths were deduced and used together with the results of the shell model calculations to study the contribution of different particle-hole configurations, in particular for analyzing contributions from core-excited configurations.

Competing single-particle and collective states in the low-energy structure of I-113
- 2013

- To understand the low-energy structure of the neutron deficient iodine isotopes, lifetimes for the low-lying 9/2(+) and 11/2(+) positive-parity states in I-113 have been measured as tau = 28(4) ps and tau = 3.7(7) ps, respectively. The lifetime for the 11/2(-) state, which feeds the 9/2(+) and 11/2(+) states, was remeasured with improved accuracy as tau = 216(7) ps. The reduced transition probability, B(E2) = 32(5) W.u., for the 9/2(+) -> 5/2(+) transition agrees with that calculated within the shell model using a Hamiltonian based on the charge-dependent Bonn nucleon-nucleon interaction. In contrast, the much larger transition probability, B(E2) = 209(39) W.u., measured for the 11/2(+) -> 7/2(+) transition has been interpreted, with the aid of configuration-constrained total Routhian surface calculations, as resulting from a slightly gamma-soft rotor with an associated quadrupole deformation of beta(2) approximate to 0.18. Remarkably similar reduced E1 transition probabilities of 5.5(5) x 10(-4) and 4.9(5) x 10(-4) W.u. were deduced for the 11/2(-) -> 9/2(+) and 11/2(-) -> 11/2(+) transitions, respectively, which feed apparently dissimilar but competing structures.
