Oよりも中性子が4個も多いため、これまで観測されてこなかった。この論文では、理化学研究所RIBFにて
Fからの1陽子ノックアウト反応によって
Oを生成し、そこから放出される中性子を測定することによって初めてその観測に成功した。核構造の観点からは、
Oでは二重閉殻が保たれているか興味が持たれていたが、実験で得られた分光学的因子が殻模型計算で予言されて程度の大きいことから、閉殻構造をもたない可能性が高いことがわかった。

Neの詳細な
線分光を行った。平行運動量分布の解析に基づき、
Neの準位構造とスピンパリティを決定し、初めて負のパリティ状態を同定した。測定された断面積と運動量分布から、N=20とN=28のシェルギャップの消失の証拠となる有意なintruder p-wave強度が明らかになった。束縛状態については、弱いf-waveの可能性のある強度が観測された。いくつかの有効相互作用を用いた大規模殻模型計算では、実験的に観測された大きなp-wave強度と小さなf-wave強度は再現されず、Ne同位体に沿った反転の島への遷移の完全な理論的記述への挑戦が続いていることを示している。

被引用回数:6 パーセンタイル:47.75(Astronomy & Astrophysics)Gamow-Teller decay is forbidden if the number of nodes in the radial wave functions of the initial and final states is different. This
= 0 requirement plays a major role in the
decay of heavy neutron-rich nuclei, affecting the nucleosynthesis through the increased half-lives of nuclei on the astrophysical
-process pathway below both
= 50 (for
82) and
= 82 (for
126). The level of forbiddenness of the

0
transition has been investigated from the
decay of the ground state of
Hg into the single-proton-hole nucleus
Tl in an experiment at the ISOLDE Decay Station. From statistical observational limits on possible
-ray transitions depopulating the
0
state in
Tl, an upper limit of 3.9
10
% was obtained for the probability of this decay, corresponding to log
8.8 within a 95% confidence limit. This is the most stringent test of the
= 0 selection rule to date.

被引用回数:43 パーセンタイル:85.39(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.

Ni were populated in the
decay of
Fe and studied using
-delayed
-ray spectroscopy of the
decay, at the RIBF in RIKEN, Japan. The experimental results were compared to state-of-the-art shell-model calculations, and indicate a dominance of prolate deformation in the low-lying states, coexisting with spherical states. The
decay of the
isobars is shown to progress in accordance to a new type of shell evolution, the so-called Type II, which involves many particle-hole excitations across energy gaps.

被引用回数:26 パーセンタイル:83.57(Physics, Nuclear)Low-lying excited states in Ni have been investigated at RIKEN by studying the
decay of
Co to
Ni.
Co was separated with BigRIPS, implanted into the WaS3ABi Silicon array, and the
ray measured using the EURICA
spectrometer. From the analysis, 60 new
-ray transitions and 21 new levels in
Ni were observed. The new experimental information is compared to shell-model calculations which include neutron excitation across the
shell. The calculations reproduce rather well the observed states, implying that a clear understanding of these low-lying excitations has been achieved.

Mn have been measured at the RIBF facility at RIKEN using the EURICA
spectrometer combined with an active stopper consisting of a stack of Si detectors. Half-lives and
-delayed neutron emission probabilities have been extracted for these decays, together with first experimental information on excited states populated in
Fe. The data indicate a continuously increasing deformation for Fe isotopes up to A=70, and interpreted to be due to the interplay between quadrupole correlation of specific neutron orbitals and the monopole component of the proton-neutron interaction.
