- Excited states of Te-108 were populated in the Fe-54 + Ni-58 (270 MeV) reaction using the NORDBALL detector array equipped with charged-particle and neutron detector systems for reaction channel separation. Gamma rays belonging to the neutron deficient nucleus Te-108 were identified for the first time. On the basis of gammagamma-coincidence and angular correlation relations a level scheme was constructed with tentative spin and parity assignments. The structure of the nucleus is discussed in the framework of systematics of heavier Te nuclei.

IN-BEAM SPECTROSCOPY OF TE-110
- 1994

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The neutron-deficient nucleus Te-110 has been investigated by in-beam spectroscopic methods using the NORDBALL multi-detector array. Except for the energy of one level observed in alpha-decay, excited states in Te-110 were previously unknown. The level scheme constructed from gamma gamma-coincidence relationships is presented with tentative spin assignments up to I-pi = 21(-). Above spin 8(+) the yrast states have negative parity. They are most likely the members of a band predominantly based on the nu(h(11/2)g(7/2)) two-quasiparticle configuration. A band crossing is observed at I-pi approximate to 17(-). It is suggested to be caused by the alignment of two h(11/2) neutrons. The cranked shell model correctly predicts the spin alignment, but fails to reproduce the observed band crossing frequency, possibly because of octupole effects.

GAMMA-RAY SPECTROSCOPY OF CD-110

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The nucleus Cd-110 has been studied using the C-13 and O-18 induced reactions and the NORDBALL multi-detector array. The yrast band was observed to I(pi) = 28+ and a large number of side bands were identified. The h11/2 neutrons were found to play a dominant role in the observed rotational structures. The weakly populated yrast 3187 keV 8+ state is interpreted as arising from the proton g9/2(-2) configuration. Collective bands, where the band members are connected by DELTAI = 1 transitions and where the DELTAI = 2 transitions are not observed, are also reported. These bands are interpreted to have prolate configurations involving both the h11/2 neutrons and the g9/2 protons. The experimental data are discussed in terms of the total routhian surface and cranked shell model calculations.

EXCITED-STATES OF I-111 AND THE OBSERVATION OF A 21-NS ISOMER

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Proton rich nuclei close to Sn-100 have been investigated an-beam using the NORDBALL detector array. A beam of 270 MeV Ni-58 was used to bombard a Fe-54 target. Reaction channel separation was achieved with a 4 pi charged particle multi-detector set-up together with a 1 pi neutron detector wall placed in the forward direction. Gamma-ray transitions belonging do the I-111 nucleus were identified for the first time. A level scheme constructed from gamma-gamma-perticle-coincidence analysis is proposed. The level structure is discussed within the framework of the shell model and the systematics of the heavier odd iodine nuclei.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Neutron deficient nuclei close to Sn-100 have been investigated in-beam using the NORDBALL detector array. A target of Fe-54 was bombarded with a beam of Ni-58 at 270 MeV. Evaporation residues were identified by detecting protons and alpha particles in a 4 pi charged particle multi-detector set-up and neutrons in a 1 pi neutron detector wall in coincidence with gamma rays. Excited states of the proton drip line nucleus Sb-106 and of Sb-107 were identified for the first time. The yrast level schemes constructed from gamma-gamma-particle coincidence and gamma-gamma angular correlation analysis are presented and discussed within the framework of the nuclear shell model.

COMPETING PROTON AND NEUTRON ALIGNMENTS IN NEUTRON-DEFICIENT XE-NUCLEI

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- High-spin structures of the neutron-deficient Xe-117, Xe-118, Xe-120 isotopes have been studied by in-beam gamma-ray spectroscopic techniques. The final nuclei have been identified by means of charged-particle detectors. Collective rotational bands based on the neutron d5/2, 97/2 and h11/2 configurations have been identified in Xe-117. In the even Xe-118 and Xe-120 nuclei several new side bands were observed and the previously known bands were extended. The present level schemes include two positive-parity bands constructed to high spin in Xe-118, whereas in Xe-120 three such bands were observed. In order to explain these bands, both proton and neutron (h11/2)2 alignments, as well as the shape degree of freedom, have to be invoked. The possible occurrence of a gammaS-band is addressed and a pronounced structural change for more heavy Xe-isotopes is discussed. All negative-parity side bands are interpreted in terms of proton two-quasiparticle excitations. The experimental data are compared with total routhian surface calculations.

- High Spin states in 106Cd were populated by the reactions Zr-94(O-17, 5n) and Ge(S-32, 4n) at 80 MeV and at 148 MeV, respectively. The gamma-decay was studied by gamma-spectroscopic methods using the Nordball multi-detector army. Protons and alpha-particles were detected in particle detector system, thus selecting the neutron channel. The experiment included gamma-ray yields, gammagamma-coincidences and gamma-ray angular relation measurements. Collective bands extending up to spin 26+, 20- and 21-, have been observed in 106Cd. A new lifetime Of 11(-3)+6 ns for the 16+ state at 7118.7 keV has been found. Both total Routhian surfaces and spin diabatic surfaces have been calculated and used for assigning quasiparticle configurations to the bands. The (+, 0) band is assigned as a nuh11/2(2) configuration below I = 16+ and at higher spins suggested to be built on a pig9/2(2)nuh11/2(2) configuration. The large hindrance observed for the decay from the 16+ state supports the latter assignment. With the alignment of the nuh11/12(2) pair the deformation is predicted to change from (epsilon2,gamma) = (0.13,-2-degrees) to (0.17, 4-degrees). The configuration of the negative parity bands is assigned as either a nuh11/2(1)d5/2(1) or a nuh11/2(1)(g7/2xd5/2)1, With (epsilon2, gamma) = (0.14,9-degrees.
