Times Cited Count:6 Percentile:42.24(Physics, Nuclear)The spin-parity and neutron configuration of the ground state of No have been identified through
-decay spectroscopy. The
No is the nucleus with the largest neutron number whose spin-parities and single-particle configurations have ever been identified. The neutron 9/2
[615] configuration was assigned to the ground state of
No as well as to the 231.4 keV level in
Fm. This allowed us to establish energy spacings and order of the neutron single-particle orbitals in such heaviest nuclear region. The appearance of the 9/2
[615] ground state at
=157 implies that the order of the neutron orbitals between the
=152 and 162 deformed shell gaps should change considerably with increasing neutron number.

decay of
No are studied in detail through
-
coincidence and
fine structure measurements. Spin-parities and neutron configurations of the excited states in
Fm as well as the ground state of
No are definitely identified on the basis of deduced internal conversion coefficients, lifetimes of
transitions, rotational-band energies built on one-quasiparticle states, and hindrance factors of
transitions. It is found that the excitation energy of the 1/2
[620] state in
=151 isotones increases with the atomic number, especially at
100, while that of the 1/2
[631] state decreases at
=100. Energy systematics of the one-quasiparticle states in the
=151 isotones are discussed in terms of the evolution of nuclear deformation involving the hexadecapole and hexacontatetrapole deformations.

U at the JAEA-Tokai tandem accelerator facility, and separated from the reaction products using an on-line isotope separator. The deduced mass excesses and two-neutron separation energies were compared with those of atomic mass evaluations and theoretical predictions.

Gd produced in the proton-induced fission of 238U were identified using the JAERI on-line isotope separator (JAERI-ISOL) coupled to a gas-jet transport sysetm. The half-lives of

Am with half-lives of 3.6 min and 2.9 min. In

Am to the two-quasiparticle states in
Pu show small

Am and the two-quasiparticle states.
