- Three experiments using the (174) Yb(Mg-25,5n)Pb-194 reaction have been undertaken at the Early Implementation of Gammasphere to study the decay of known superdeformed states in Pb-194. A single discrete transition with an energy of 2.746(2) MeV carrying 6(2)% of the full superdeformed band intensity has been identified. A discussion of our results and the assignment of the 2.746-MeV transition as a discrete gamma ray directly connecting the superdeformed 8(+) and low-lying 6(+) levels will be presented.

Search for hyperdeformation in Gd-146,Gd-147
- 1996
-
In: Physical Review C. Nuclear Physics. - 0556-2813 .- 1089-490X. ; 54:4, s. 1585-1588

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- A search was undertaken to look for evidence of hyperdeformation in Gd-146,Gd-147. Three experiments employing Gammasphere for gamma-ray detection coupled with the Microball for channel selection via charged particle detection were carried out with increasing detection sensitivity and statistics. No definitive evidence for band structures that could be assigned to hyperdeformation could be found. Candidates previously reported are shown not to have properties consistent with a band structure.

Superdeformation in Po-198
- 1996
-
In: Physical Review C. Nuclear Physics. - 0556-2813 .- 1089-490X. ; 53:2, s. R541-R543
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The Yb-174(Si-29,5n) reaction at 148 MeV with thin targets was used to populate high-angular momentum states in Po-198. Resulting gamma rays were observed with Gammasphere. A weakly populated superdeformed band of 10 gamma-ray transitions was found and has been assigned to Po-198. This is the first observation of an SD band in the A approximate to 190 region in a nucleus with Z > 83. The J((2))) of the new band is very similar to those of the yrast SD bands in Hg-194 and Pb-196. The intensity profile suggests that this band is populated through states close to where the SD band crosses the yrast line and the angular momentum at which the fission process dominates.

Correlation between karyotypic pattern and clincopathologic features in 125 breast cancer cases
- 1996
-
In: International Journal of Cancer. - 0020-7136. ; 66:2, s. 6-191
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- A correlation analysis was performed on 125 cytogenetically characterized breast cancer cases to assess the relationship between the tumor karyotype and clinicopathologic features. The carcinomas of young women had a higher modal chromosome number than those of older women. The number of chromosomal aberrations and modal chromosome number were also found to correlate with the histologic type, grade and mitotic activity of the tumor. Whereas all lobular carcinomas were karyotypically normal or near-diploid, more than 3 aberrations and sometimes near-triploid or near-tetraploid karyotypes were common findings in ductal carcinomas, especially in grade-III tumors and in tumors showing high mitotic activity in vivo. Karyotypes with cytogenetically unregulated clones and unbalanced structural chromosomal rearrangements were more frequent in infiltrating than in in situ carcinomas but, at least as far as the second of these 2 characteristics is concerned, especially in infiltrating carcinomas that also had an in situ component. The presence of cytogenetic polyclonality correlated with tumor grade. Although recurrent chromosome aberrations were significantly more common in ductal than in lobular carcinomas, none of these breast cancer-associated anomalies seemed to be specific for any particular clinicopathologic parameter. The associations between modal chromosome number and mitotic activity and between cytogenetic polyclonality and tumor grade were found to be statistically significant in multivariate models. No correlations was seen between the karyotypic findings and tumor size or the presence of axillary-lymph-node metastases.

Deformation driving intruder orbitals in Kr-77
- 1997
-
In: Physical Review C. Nuclear Physics. - 0556-2813 .- 1089-490X. ; 56:2, s. 772-781
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- High-spin states in Kr-77 were identified via analysis of prompt gamma-gamma coincidences in the Ni-58(Si-29,2 alpha 2p) reaction at 128 MeV at the Gammasphere facility. Evaporation channel selection was achieved using the 95 element Microball charged-particle detector. 27 new states and 42 new transitions were found, The positive-parity bands were confirmed and the alpha=-1/2 band extended to 39/2(+). The negative-parity signature pair was extended to 31/2(-) and 37/2(-). Two new high-lying negative-parity bands were found extending from a state of spin I = 15/2 and energy 2.6 MeV to 17.4 MeV at I = (55/2). The new bands appear highly deformed and become yrast at high spin. A three-quasiparticle structure based on deformation driving, low-K unique-parity and intruder orbitals is suggested for them.
