The fission-product yield distributions are unique for each fissionable nuclide and interrogating neutron energy. Ratios of fissile materials (e.g. U, Pu, and Pu), therefore, could be deduced from differences in the observed neutron-induced Delayed Gamma-ray (DG) spectra characterized by the difference of these yields. This DG Spectroscopy (DGS) project includes research and development of a measurement system along with confirming and improving nuclear data. Experiments will be held at multiple facilities, including ITU/Ispra (Italy), IRMM/Geel (Belgium), and KURRI/Kumatori (Japan), using a wide range of neutron sources and nuclear material sample targets. The experimental efforts of this DGS project are described in this presentation.

The neutron-rich nucleus Ar is produced by the fragmentation reactions of Ca, Sc, and Ti at the RIBF facility in RIKEN, and its deexcited rays are observed for the first time. The first level in Ar is identified to lie at 1178(18)keV from the most intense -ray spectra. This experimental data, together with the systematics of the levels for surrounding nuclei, is analyzed with large-scale shell-model calculations. Consequently, the sub-shell gap in Ar is equivalent to that of Ca, thus making the level in Ar higher than that of Ar. The shell-model calculation also predicts that the sub-shell gap enhances in going from Ca to Ar, which will be verified by forthcoming experiments for Ar.
