Bi is the heaviest known proton emitting isotope. Its decay had been observed, but the assumed ground-state lifetime (
s) was incorrect, leading to unexplained hindrance. With two new experiments at Argonne National Laboratory, two states were clearly identified. One is the proton-emitting ground-state (spin 1/2
, half-life: 2.8
s), the second is a 58(2)
s
-decaying isomer. The new data show the inversion of the ground and isomeric states compared to neighboring Bi isotopes. This is the only known example of a ground-state proton decay to a daughter nucleus (
Pb) with a major shell closure.

被引用回数:46 パーセンタイル:85.14(Instruments & Instrumentation)A highly efficient array of high-purity germanium (HPGe) detectors was developed and operated at the cold neutron beam facility PF1B of the Institut Laue-Langevin (ILL) to carry out nuclear structure studies, via measurements of
-rays following neutron-induced capture and fission reactions. The setup consisted of a collimation system producing a pencil beam with a thermal capture equivalent flux of about 10
ns
cm
at the target position and negligible neutron halo. The target was surrounded by an array of eight to ten anti-Compton shielded EXOGAM Clover detectors, four to six anti-Compton shielded large coaxial GASP detectors and two standard Clover detectors. For a part of the campaign the array was combined with 16 LaBr
:(Ce) detectors from the FATIMA collaboration.

被引用回数:25 パーセンタイル:79.72(Physics, Nuclear)An exploratory experiment was performed at REX-ISOLDE CERN to test the potential of cluster-transfer reactions at the Coulomb barrier as a mechanism to explore the structure of exotic neutron-rich nuclei. The transfer of triton and alpha particles in a reaction of a beam of
Rb onto a
Li target were studied through particle-
coincidence measurements. The results indicate that such cluster transfer reactions can be an efficient method to investigate the structure of neutron-rich nuclei at medium-high excitation energies and spins.

Zn have been populated using the reaction
Zn(d,p) at REX-Isolde, CERN. The analysis reveals that the lowest excited states in
Zn lie at approximately 1 MeV, and involve neutron orbits above the N=50 shell gap. A 5/2
configuration was assigned to the 983-keV state. Comparison with large-scale shell model calculations supports a robust neutron N=50 shell closure for
Ni. These data constitute an important step towards the understanding the magicity of
Ni and the structure of nuclei in the region.

Single-neutron states in the
= 49 isotope
Zn were populated in the
Zn(d,p)
Zn transfer reaction at REX-ISOLDE, CERN. The combined detection of protons ejected in the reaction and of
rays emitted by
Zn permitted the identification of the lowest-lying 5/2
and 1/2
excited states. The analysis of proton angular distributions links these states to a significant amount of single-particle strength around 1 MeV, and specifically to the
d
and
s
neutron orbits, which lie above the
= 50 neutron shell gap. Comparison with large-scale-shell-model calculations supports a robust
= 50 shell-closure for
Ni. These data constitute a considerable step towards the understanding of the magicity of
Ni and of the structure of isotopes in the region.
