- Beta-decay half-lives and delayed-neutron emission probabilities of the neutron-rich noble-gas isotopes Kr94-99 and Xe142-147 have been measured at the PSB-ISOLDE facility at CERN. The results are compared to QRPA shell-model predictions and are used in dynamic calculations of r-process abundances of Kr and Xe isotopes. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Yields of He, Ne, Ar, Kr and Xe isotopic chains were measured from UCx/graphite and ThCx/graphite targets at the PSB-ISOLDE facility at CERN using isobaric selectivity achieved by the combination of a plasma-discharge ion source with a water-cooled transfer line. The delay times measured for a UCx/graphite target allow for an extrapolation to the expected yields of very neutron-rich noble gas isotopes, in particular for the "NuPECC reference elements" Ar and Kr, at the next-generation radioactive ion-beam facility EURISOL.

beta decay of Ar-49,Ar-50
- 2003

Ingår i: Physical Review C - Nuclear Physics. - 2469-9985 .- 2469-9993. ; 67:5

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Information on gross beta-decay properties of neutron-rich noble gas isotopes Ar-49,Ar-50 was obtained at the PSB-ISOLDE facility at CERN using isobaric selectivity achieved by the combination of a plasma ion source with a cooled transfer line and subsequent mass separation. A doubly charged beam was used in the case of Ar-49 to suppress the corresponding multicharged background from heavier noble gas fission products. The comparison of the obtained data with results of quasiparticle random-phase approximation calculations indicates that the N=28 shell is not disturbed significantly for neutron-rich Ar nuclei. The obtained results are useful for better understanding of the origin of the Ca-48/Ca-46 isotopic anomaly discovered in inclusions from the Allende meteorite.

News on C-12 from beta-decay studies
- 2004
-
Ingår i: Nuclear Physics A. - : Elsevier BV. - 0375-9474. ; 738, s. 59-65
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- We discuss the importance of the spectroscopic properties of the resonances of C-12 just above the 3alpha-threshold, and review the existing experimental information of this region with emphasis on 0(+) and 2(+) states. A new experimental approach for studying the beta-decays of B-12 and N-12 is presented based on techniques developed in the context of Radioactive beam (rare isotope) physics. Finally preliminary results from an ongoing analysis of two recent experiments are given.

Isotope production comparison at ISOLDE with 1 and 1.4 GeV protons
- 2002
-
Ingår i: Nuclear Physics A. - 0375-9474. ; 701, s. 137C-143C
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- The difference in isotope production between 1 and 1.4 GeV proton projectiles was investigated at ISOLDE/CERN during the year 1999. As target materials uranium carbide, thorium carbide, lead and lanthanum oxide were used and the ratio of the measured production yields for the two different projectile energies were determined for isotopes of the elements francium, mercury, thallium, xenon, cesium, krypton, rubidium and neon. A comparison of these experimental results with the predictions from a two-step reaction model Monte-Carlo code shows good agreement. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Non-analog beta decay of Rb-74

- The magnitude of the Coulomb mixing parameter delta (l)(IM) has been experimentally deduced, for the first time, for the B decay of Rb-74. Th, estimated magnitude is derived from the feeding of the non-analog first excited 0(+) state in Kr-74. The inferred upper Limit of 0.07% is small compared to theoretical predictions. The half-life was measured to be 64.90(9) ms.

beta-decay studies of Sn135-137 using selective resonance laser ionization techniques
- 2002
-
Ingår i: Physical Review C - Nuclear Physics. - 2469-9985 .- 2469-9993. ; 65:3
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The decays of the very neutron rich Sn isotopes Sn135-137 were studied at CERN/ISOLDE using isotopic and isobaric selectivity achieved by the use of a resonance ionization laser ion source and mass spectroscopy, respectively. Neutron decay rates, gamma-ray singles, and gamma-gamma coincidence data were collected as a function of time. The half-life (T-1/2) and delayed neutron emission probability (P-n) values of 135 Sn were measured to be 530(20) ms and 21(3)%, respectively. For Sn-136, a T-1/2 of 250(30) ms was determined along with a P-n value of 30(5)%. For Sn-137, a T-1/2 of 190(60) ms and a P-n value of 58(15)% were deduced. Identification of low-energy transitions in Sb-135 was made possible by comparison of laser-on and laser-off gamma-ray spectra. Those data combined with gamma-gamma coincidence spectra were used to construct a level scheme for Sb-135 that includes an unexpectedly low first excited state at 282 keV. A ground state beta branch of 33.2% was measured by following the growth and decay of the Sb-135 daughter. Shell-model calculations are consistent with the observed Sb-135 level structure and can account for a lowered first excited state.

beta(+) decay of Ga-61
- 2002

Ingår i: Physical Review C - Nuclear Physics. - 2469-9985 .- 2469-9993. ; 65:4, s. 054314-

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The mirror beta(+) decay of Ga-61 was investigated by means of beta- and gamma-ray spectrometry at the ISOLDE-PSB facility using laser ionization and mass separation. The results for the Ga-61 half-life and the Q(EC) value are 168(3) ms and 9255(50) keV, respectively. The beta-decay strength to the ground and low-lying excited states of the daughter Zn-61 was deduced. The experimental results are in a good agreement with large-scale shell-model calculations.
