- Gamma-ray lines from Sn-103 have been identified for the first time using EUROBALL and ancillary detectors. The level scheme of Sn-103 has been established by means of particle-gated gamma gamma coincidences. The energy spacing between the g(7/2) and d(5/2) neutron single-particle orbitals is determined from the excited states in Sn-103.

- The next generation of 4 pi arrays for high-precision gamma -ray spectroscopy will involve "gamma -ray tracking front-end on digital signal processing techniques, which allows to extract energy, timing and spatial information on the interactions of a gamma -ray in the Ge detector by pulse shape analysis of its signals. Utilizing the information on the positions of the interaction points and the energies released at each point the tracks of the gamma -rays in a Ge shell can be reconstructed in three dimensions.

- The structure of In-102 has been investigated by in-beam gamma-spectroscopic methods. Knowledge on the excited states of this nucleus has significantly been extended. Three cascades of transitions were observed to exceed the spin-energy domain spanned by the pig(9/2)(-1)v(d(5/2),g(7/2))(3) configurations. The new high spin states at similar to 4 MeV excitation energy could be assigned to the pig(9/2)(-1)v(d(5/2), g(7/2))(2)h (11/2) configuration, while at least those at 4.733, 5.192 and 5.853 MeV most likely arise from the vg(9/2) --> vd(5/2), g(7/2) one-particle-one-hole excitation across the N = 50 shell closure.

- Excited states of the neutron deficient Ag-101 nucleus have been investigated via the Cr-50(Ni-58, 3rho1alpha) heavy-ion induced reaction at 261 meV by use of in-beam spectroscopic methods. On the basis of the measured gammagamma-cincidence relations and angular distribution ratios high-spin bands have been extended up to I-pi = 35/2(+), 45/2((-)) and (49/2(-)). The negative parity states at the highest energy have been interpreted as terminating non-collective oblate states in the framework of the Nilsson-Strutinsky cranking formalism.

- Excited states of nuclei near the doubly-magic nucleus Sn-100 were studied with the Ni-58+Cr-50 reaction. The experimental setup consisted of the GAMMASPHERE array augmented with light charged-particle and neutron detectors. Excited states were identified for the first time in the proton emitting nucleus Sb-105. Excitations across the N=Z=50 doubly closed shell were observed in Cd-99 and In-101. Some results of large-scale shell-model calculations are discussed.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- A closely integrated theoretical and experimental effort to understand chemical bonding using X-ray spectroscopic probes is presented. Theoretical techniques to simulate XAS (X-ray absorption spectroscopy), XES (X-ray emission spectroscopy), RIXS (resonant inelastic X-ray scattering) and XPS (X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy) spectra have been developed and implemented within a density functional theory (DFT) framework. In combination with new experimental techniques, such as high-resolution XAS on liquid water under ambient conditions and XES on complicated surface adsorbates, new insight into e.g. hydrogen-bonded systems is obtained. For the (3 x 2) overlayer structure of glycine/Cu(110), earlier work has been extended to include adsorbate-adsorbate interactions. Structures are optimized for large cluster models and for periodic boundary conditions. It is found that specific features in the spectra arise from hydrogen-bonding interactions, which thus have important effects at the molecular-orbital level. XAS on liquid water shows a pronounced pre-edge feature with significant intensity, while the spectrum of ice shows only little intensity in this region. Theoretical spectrum calculations, based on instantaneous structures obtained from molecular-dynamics (MD) simulations, show that the pre-edge feature in the liquid is caused by water molecules with unsaturated hydrogen bonding. Some aspects of the theoretical simulations will be briefly discussed.

- Excited states of Ag-99 were populated via the Cr-50 + Ni-58 (261 MeV) reaction using the NORDBALL detector array equipped with charged-particle and neutron. detector systems for reaction channel separation. On the basis of the measured gammagamma-coincidence relations and angular distribution ratios a significantly extended level scheme has been constructed up to E-x similar to 7.8 MeV and I = 35/2. The experimental results were described within the framework of the shell model. Candidates for states fully aligned in the pig(9/2)(-3)nu(d(5/2),g(7/2))(2) valence configuration space were found at 4109 and 6265 keV.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Nuclei in the vicinity of the doubly-magic Sn-100 nucleus have been studied, and an extended level scheme for In-102 has been established. The level structure comprises both the negative parity states involving the nuh(11/2) orbital, and levels due to the breakup of the doubly-magic Sn-100 core. Results of a large-scale shell model calculation, using realistic and empirical effective interactions with Sr-88 as a core, are in very good agreement with the experimental data.

- Level schemes of Cd-99(48)51 and In-101(49)52 nuclei have been extended to high spin. The breakup of the doubly magic Sn-100 core has been observed. Large-scale shell model calculations based on realistic nucleon-nucleon interactions are in good agreement with the experimental data. These results provide a reliable basis to predict nuclear structure properties in Sn-100 and its neighbors. For example, the size of the N=50 shell gap and the energy of the first excited state in Sn-101 have been deduced.

- Excited states in the proton emitter Sb-105 have been investigated for the first time. The nucleus was populated in the reaction Cr-50(Ni-58,1p2n). The GAMMASPHERE Ge-detector array was used together with Microball and the Neutron Shell for selection of the reaction channel. The experimental level scheme agrees well with results of a shell model calculation that uses realistic effective interactions derived from the CD-Bonn nucleon-nucleon interaction and Sn-100 as a closed-shell core.

- An angular dependent X-ray absorption spectroscopy study of the surface of thin ice films grown on Pt(1 1 1) is presented. Using different probing depths together with spectral calculations based on density functional theory, the spectra are interpreted in terms of the structure of surface, subsurface and bulk regions. It is shown that the crystalline ice is terminated with a large abundance of isotropically distributed free O–H groups and a distorted subsurface.

Ethylene on Cu(110) and Ni(110) : Electronic structure and bonding derived from x-ray spectroscopy and theory
- 2004
-
Ingår i: Surface Science. - : Elsevier. - 0039-6028. ; 559:2-3, s. 85-93

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The bonding of ethylene to Cu(1 1 0) and Ni(1 1 0) is analyzed in detail using symmetry-resolved X-ray absorption (XAS) and emission (XES) spectroscopies in conjunction with density functional theory (DFT) calculations of geometric structure and spectra. XES, which probes the occupied valence states, reveals the formation of bonding and non-bonding orbitals of π-3d as well as π*-3d character. Additional mixing of σ and π states indicates rehybridization upon adsorption. The anti-bonding π-3d and π*-3d combinations are unoccupied and seen in XAS. A lower intensity of the π* transition for Ni is evidence of larger π* occupancy upon bonding. The position of the σ* shape-resonance indicates a 0.02 Å longer C–C bond on Ni than on Cu, in good agreement with the DFT structure optimizations. The XE spectra are well-reproduced both by specific spectrum calculations based on cluster models and by the carbon p-density of states calculated using periodic boundary conditions. The contribution of both π and π* levels to the new, surface-induced occupied states close to the Fermi-level lends support to the traditional Dewar–Chatt–Duncanson picture of the bonding. Theoretical charge-density difference plots support an alternative view of ethylene bonding in terms of the specific involvement of the excited molecular triplet state. Based on the variation in XE intensities the main difference between ethylene bonding to Cu and Ni is found to be an about two times larger occupancy of the π* orbital upon chemisorption on the transition metal, which comes along with C–C bond elongation and stronger σ–π rehybridization.

Orbital rehybridization in n-octane adsorbed on Cu(110)

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- We have investigated the local electronic structure of n-octane adsorbed on the Cu(110) surface using symmetry-resolved x-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and x-ray emission spectroscopy (XES) in combination with density functional theory (DFT) spectrum calculations. We found new adsorption-induced states in the XE spectra, which we assign to interaction between the bonding CH orbitals and the metal surface. By performing a systematic investigation of the influence of different structural parameters on the XA and XE spectra, we conclude that the molecular geometry is significantly distorted relative to the gas-phase structure. The bonding to the surface leads to a strengthening of the carbon–carbon bonds and a weakening of the carbon–hydrogen bonds, consistent with a rehybridization of the carbons from sp3 to sp2.8. ©2003 American Institute of Physics.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- A core-excited I-pi=(12(+)) spin-gap isomer was identified in Cd-98 in an experiment at EUROBALL IV. It was found to feed the known I-pi=(8(+)) seniority isomer by an E4 transition. Half-lives of T-1/2=0.23 ((+4)(-3)) mus and 0.17 ((+6)(-4)) mus were measured for the two states at E-x=6635 keV and 2428 keV, respectively. From the excitation energy of the core-excited isomer a Sn-100 shell gap of 6.46(15) MeV is inferred. The measured E4 and E2 strengths, Sn-100 core excitations and the origin of empirical polarization charges are discussed in the framework of large-scale shell model calculations.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- A new superdeformed rotational band has been observed in Er-154 using the Euroball Ge detector array. The new band and the one previously observed can be understood as based on coexisting superdeformed structures at prolate and triaxial shapes, respectively. The observation resolves long-standing difficulties in the theoretical interpretation of superdeformed states in Er-154.
