Abstract

Using a208Pb beam of the UNILAC accelerator at GSI we produced the new isotopes203Au and205Au and identified them by measuring theirβ-decay properties. Their half-lives were found to be 60(6)s and 31(2)s, respectively, and theQ-value of203Au was determined to beQ β =2040(60)keV. Nuclear structure information of203,205Hg was derived from this measurement. Furthermore, production cross-sections of203,205Au are given and compared to those obtained in other experiments.
