- 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.

Smooth Termination of Rotational Bands in 62Zn: Evidence for a Loss of Collectivity
- 1998

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.

Comparison of Superdeformed Bands in 61Zn and 60Zn: Possible Evidence for T=0 Pairing
- 1999

Ingår i: Physical Review C (Nuclear Physics). - 0556-2813. ; 60:3

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The yrast superdeformed band in Zn-61 has been established using Si-28(Ar-36, 2pn)Zn-61 and Ca-40(Si-29, 2 alpha)Zn-61 fusion-evaporation reactions. The excitation energy of this band was determined via two transitions that link this band to the normally deformed states. Lifetime analysis of this band resulted in a quadrupole moment of Q(t) = 3.0 +/- (0.5)(0.4)e b, which corresponds to a deformation of beta(2) = 0.50+/-(0.07)(0.06). A comparison of the J((2)) dynamical moments of inertia of the yrast superdeformed band in Zn-61 with those in Zn-60 shows a nearly complete blocking of the observed alignment in Zn-60, indicating that T=0 proton-neutron pair correlations may be present in Zn-60.

Extruder proton-hole band in the near-drip-line nucleus [Formula Presented] Pr
- 1998

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The near-drip-line nucleus [Formula Presented] Pr was populated with the reaction [Formula Presented] Mo[Formula Presented] Ca,[Formula Presented] at a beam energy of 175 [Formula Presented] V. Particle-[Formula Presented]-[Formula Presented] coincidences were collected, and the total energy plane gating technique was used to enhance events associated with the [Formula Presented] exit channel. This enabled two new rotational bands to be assigned to [Formula Presented] Pr, including a strongly coupled structure. Its similarity with analogous bands in heavier Pr isotopes suggests this structure is most likely based on a hole in the extruder [Formula Presented]proton orbital. The occupancy of this orbital is associated with enhanced quadrupole deformation in this mass region.

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.

Superdeformation below [Formula Presented]
- 1996

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.
