被引用回数：3 パーセンタイル：66.85(Physics, Nuclear)The selenium isotopes lie at the heart of a tumultuous region of the nuclear chart where shape coexistence effects grapple with neutron-proton pairing correlations, triaxiality, and the impending proton dripline. In this work a study of Se by internal conversion electron and 
-ray spectroscopy was undertaken with the SPICE and TIGRESS arrays. New measurements of the branching ratio and lifetime of the 
state were performed yielding a determination of 
milliunits. Two state mixing calculations were performed that highlighted the importance of interpretation of such 
strength values in the context of shape-coexistence.

被引用回数：46 パーセンタイル：86.05(Chemistry, Multidisciplinary)We present a hierarchical aggregate model of an organic phase containing a coordination species that acts as a fundamental building unit of higher-order structures formed in the organic phase. We aimed to elucidate the fundamental aspects of the microscopic structure and phase separation occurring in ionic separation and recovery systems during solvent extraction. The coordination species aggregate through a hydrogen-bonding network formed by interaction between the hydrophilic part of the coordination species with extracted water and acid molecules. This reduces the hydrophilic surface area, resulting in subsequent formation of small primal clusters of 2 to 3 nm in diameter. The primal clusters further aggregate due to van der Waals interaction to form large aggregates of 
10 nm in diameter. The size of the primal cluster does not depend on the concentration of the coordination species, whereas the size of the large aggregate increases as the aggregation number of the primal clusters increases. We conclude that hybrid interaction is a key driving force in the formation and growth of the hierarchical aggregate and the induction of phase separation of the organic phase.

The phenomenon of shape coexistence is prevalent in the Z
34 region, with isotopes of neutron-deficient even Ge, Se and Kr each exhibiting the characteristic low-lying coexisting 0+ bands which display quadrupole deformation different to that of the ground states. In the selenium isotopes, 
Se seem to show a prolate ground structure with shape coexisting oblate excitation, while in Se the oblate structure appears to have become the ground state. The exact nature of the low-lying structure Se and any shape coexistence remains uncertain. Combining the Spectrometer for Internal Conversion Electrons (SPICE) with the TIGRESS HPGe Array, a full electron and gamma-ray experimental study of Se, Se was undertaken at the TRIUMF ISAC-II facility to unveil the low-lying structure of these nuclei. Details of the device and experiment will be presented, alongside the experimental results and possible structural interpretations for both isotopes.
