In: Physical Review C - Nuclear Physics. - 2469-9985 .- 2469-9993. ; 6203:3
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The level structure of the unbound nucleus N-11 has been studied by C-10+p elastic resonance scattering in inverse geometry with the LISE3 spectrometer at GANIL, using a C-10 beam with an energy of 9.0 MeV/ nucleon. An additional measurement was done at the A1200 spectrometer at MSU. The excitation function above the C-10+p threshold has been determined up to 5 MeV. A potential-model analysis revealed three resonance states at energies 1.27(-0.05)(+0.18) MeV (Gamma = 1.44 +/- 0.2 MeV), 2.01(-0.05)(+0.15) MeV (Gamma = 0.84 +/- 0.2 MeV), and 3.75 +/- 0.05 MeV (Gamma = 0.60 +/- 0.05 MeV) with the spin-parity assignments I-pi=1/2+,1/2,-,5/2+, respectively. Hence, N-11 is shown to have a ground state parity inversion completely analogous to its mirror partner Be-11. A narrow resonance in the excitation function at 4.33 +/- 0.05 MeV was also observed and assigned spin parity 3/2-.

beta-decay studies of Sn135-137 using selective resonance laser ionization techniques
- 2002

In: Physical Review C - Nuclear Physics. - 2469-9985 .- 2469-9993. ; 65:3
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)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 Ar-49,Ar-50
- 2003
-
In: Physical Review C - Nuclear Physics. - 2469-9985 .- 2469-9993. ; 67:5
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)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.

beta(+) decay of Ga-61
- 2002
-
In: Physical Review C - Nuclear Physics. - 2469-9985 .- 2469-9993. ; 65:4, s. 054314-
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)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.

Measurements of the elastic electromagnetic form factor ratio μpGEp/GMp via polarization transfer
- 2001
-
In: Physical Review C: covering nuclear physics. - 2469-9985. ; 64:3
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- We present measurements of the ratio of the proton elastic electromagnetic form factors, μpGEp/GMp. The Jefferson Lab Hall A Focal Plane Polarimeter was used to determine the longitudinal and transverse components of the recoil proton polarization in ep elastic scattering; the ratio of these polarization components is proportional to the ratio of the two form factors. These data reproduce the observation of Jones et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 84, 1398 (2000)], that the form factor ratio decreases significantly from unity above Q2=1GeV2.
