被引用回数:11 パーセンタイル:74.44(Physics, Nuclear)The neutron-deficient mercury isotopes serve as a classical example of shape coexistence, whereby at low energy near-degenerate nuclear states characterized by different shapes appear. The electromagnetic structure of even-mass Hg isotopes was studied using safe-energy Coulomb excitation of neutron-deficient mercury beams delivered by the REX-ISOLDE facility at CERN. The population of 0, 2, and 4 states was observed in all nuclei under study. Reduced matrix elements coupling populated yrast and non-yrast states were extracted, including their relative signs. These are a sensitive probe of shape coexistence and may be used to validate nuclear models. The experimental results are discussed in terms of mixing of two different configurations and are compared with three different model calculations: the Beyond Mean Field model, the Interacting Boson Model with configuration mixing and the General Bohr Hamiltonian. Partial agreement with experiment was observed, hinting to missing ingredients in the theoretical descriptions.

被引用回数:3 パーセンタイル:27.61(Physics, Nuclear)A detailed -decay spectroscopy study of Tl has been performed at ISOLDE (CERN). Z-selective ionization by the Resonance Ionization Laser Ion Source (RILIS) coupled to mass separation provided a high-purity beam of Tl. Fine-structure decays to excited levels in the daughter Au were identified and an -decay scheme of Tl was constructed based on an analysis of - and - - coincidences. Multipolarities of several -ray transitions deexciting levels in Au were determined. Based on the analysis of reduced -decay widths, it was found that all decays are hindered, which signifies a change of configuration between the parent and all daughter states.

被引用回数:8 パーセンタイル:50.7(Physics, Nuclear)Radioactive ion beams of Rn were studied by means of low-energy Coulomb excitation at REX-ISOLDE, CERN. The electric-quadrupole (E2) matrix elements connecting the first excited 2 to the ground state of these nuclei was extracted, which permits to determine the collectivity of these isotopes, which in both cases is deduced to be weak, as expected from the low-lying level-energy scheme. Comparisons were also made with beyond-mean-field model calculations and the magnitude of the transitional quadrupole moments are well reproduced.

被引用回数:38 パーセンタイル:88.88(Physics, Nuclear)The detailed analysis of the -delayed fission data of Tl is presented. The experiment was performed by producing a pure beam of Tl by means of highly selective resonance laser ionization followed by mass separation with the ISOLDE isotope separator. A surprising asymmetric mass distribution of fission fragments from Hg, the daughter of Tl decays, was obtained. Here, the energy calibration of the silicon detectors, which is crucial for a proper determination of the fission fragments' energy and mass split, is presented and the total kinetic energy and its dependence on the mass split ratio is discussed. A more precise -delayed fission probability of 3.2(2)10 was deduced.

被引用回数:189 パーセンタイル:97.21(Physics, Multidisciplinary)A very exotic process of -delayed fission of Tl is studied in detail by using resonant laser ionization with subsequent mass separation at ISOLDE (CERN). In contrast to common expectations, the fission-fragment mass distribution of the post--decay daughter nucleus Hg (/ = 1.25) is asymmetric. This asymmetry is more surprising since a mass-symmetric split of this extremely neutron-deficient nucleus would lead to two Zr fragments, with magic = 50 and semi-magic = 40. This is a new type of asymmetric fission, not caused by large shell effects related to fragment magic proton and neutron numbers, as observed in the actinide region. The newly-measured branching ratio for -delayed fission of Tl is 3.6(7)10 %.

本報告書は、米国ASTMが主催したシャルピー衝撃試験片再生に関するラウンドロビン試験結果をとりまとめたものである。この試験片再生ラウンドロビンは、インサート部の長さ、シャルピーハンマーの刃先形状、溶接接合方法等の影響を比較検討し、試験片再生に関するASTM規格E1253のレビューに寄与することが目的である。各国から10機関が独自の技術で再生を行い、米国ORNLにおいてすべてのシャルピー衝撃試験が実施された。試験結果は、14mmのインサートを用いた場合には再生の影響はほとんど無いことが確認された。また、溶接方法とハンマー刃先形状の組み合わせで再生の影響が分類できることを示した。すなわち、スタッド溶接及び突き合わせ溶接でASTM刃先の場合が最も影響が大きく、電子ビーム溶接でISO刃先の場合に最も影響が少ない。その他、溶接法及び機関間の相違や、衝撃荷重に関する比較検討を行った。

陽子過剰な原子核Hgの低励起エネルギー核分裂を測定した。CERN-ISOLDEにおいてTlをアイソトープ分離し、このベータ崩壊によって娘核Hgを励起さることで、この核分裂を観測した(ベータ崩壊遅延核分裂)。核分裂特性を調べたところ、中性子数50の閉殻を有するZr原子核は生成されず、質量数80と100に収率の最大を有する非対称な核分裂を示した。また、原子力機構タンデム加速器において、陽子過剰原子核のインビーム核分裂実験を行った。この結果、ウランなど従来の核分裂と異なり、励起エネルギーが増加しても質量非対称度が変化しないことがわかった。
