Observation of parity doublets in the odd-odd nucleus220Ac

Abstract

Excited states of220Ac have been investigated by means of the209Bi(14C,3n) reaction and using the “Château de Cristal” gamma ray facility. The observation of bands with alternating parity states reveals the reflection asymmetric nuclear shape of220Ac. The extracted B(E1)/B(E2) ratios display a clear spin dependence.
