Abstract

The (³He, n) reaction has been used to study strongly excited 0⁺ states in nuclei in the fp region. Measurements were made on targets of ^46,48,50Ti, ^50,52,54Cr, ^54,56,58Fe and ^58,60,62,64Ni at an energy of 15 MeV. In addition to the ground state transitions, L = 0 transitions to excited states were identified in all residual nuclei except ^64,66Zn. Many of the observed states can be identified as analogues of low-lying states in isobaric nuclei and can be predicted by the pairing vibration model (PVM). In many cases, low-lying excited states are seen which are not predicted by this model. Present results are consistent with the view that these states represent fragments of the expected PVM state. A comparison of present results with available (p, t) data leading to the same final nucleus suggests that little mixing occurs between states with different PVM configurations.

Evidence of proton-proton correlations in the <sup>116</sup>Sn+<sup>60</sup>Ni transfer reactions
2022, Physics Letters, Section B: Nuclear, Elementary Particle and High-Energy Physics
One and two proton transfer channels have been measured in ¹¹⁶Sn+⁶⁰Ni with the magnetic spectrometer PRISMA by making an excitation function at several bombarding energies, from above to well below the Coulomb barrier. The total kinetic energy loss distributions show the predominance of quasi-elastic processes in the sub-barrier regime. The data have been compared with calculations performed with the GRAZING program, based on semiclassical formalism, and in the Distorted Wave Born Approximation (DWBA), which provided a good theoretical description of the extracted transfer probabilities for the one proton transfers. The much larger values of the experimental two proton transfers compared with those evaluated within an independent particle transfer mechanism, indicate the presence of strong proton-proton correlations. The results complement the ones of the previously analyzed one- and two-neutron transfers, providing significant new information on the subject compared to past works.
An experimental view on shape coexistence in nuclei
2022, Progress in Particle and Nuclear Physics
Nuclear shape coexistence is the phenomenon in which distinct shapes occur within the same nucleus and at a similar energy. In this work, we provide an overview of the experimental investigations of shape coexistence, focusing on those regions of the nuclear chart that have been the most actively investigated within the past decade. In particular, we focus on coexistence phenomena at low angular momentum and on the new experimental information, placed within the context of previous results. We first give a summary of the experimental signatures that can be used for assessing shape coexistence, and then discuss the evidence for shape coexistence from experimental results, with particular attention paid to regions where its presence has been suggested along isotopic or isotonic chains, and in regions where “islands” of such structures have been proposed. We conclude with an overview, with an emphasis on the emerging regions where indications for multiple shape coexistence exist.
Nuclear Data Sheets for A=48
2022, Nuclear Data Sheets
Experimental nuclear structure data from various reactions and decays are compiled and evaluated for all known nuclides with mass number A=48 (S, Cl, Ar, K, Ca, Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni). For each nuclide, detailed evaluated nuclear structure information is presented for each individual reaction and decay, and the best values combining all available data are recommended for spectroscopic properties, such as level energies, half-lives, γ-ray energies and intensities, decay radiations. No excited states have been identified in ⁴⁸S, ⁴⁸Cl, ⁴⁸Co and ⁴⁸Ni, among which the first three even have no measured ground-state half-lives and decay modes. For ⁴⁸Fe, a level scheme with a sequence of excited states was established for the first time from a recent one-neutron removal measurement by 2021Ya33. Data for excited states in ⁴⁸Ar, ⁴⁸K and ⁴⁸Mn remain limited; no decay scheme has been measured for ⁴⁸Ar and ⁴⁸K yet, while the decay scheme for ⁴⁸Ni is incomplete due to unobserved levels. ⁴⁸Ti is the most studied nuclide through various reactions and decays, followed by ⁴⁸V, ⁴⁰Ca, ⁴⁸Sc, and ⁴⁸Cr, among which no decay event to ⁴⁸Sc has been observed and the decay schemes for ⁴⁸V and ⁴⁸Cr are considered as incomplete. This work supersedes the previous full evaluations of A=48: 2006Bu08, 1993Bu04, 1985Al14, 1978Be01.
Nuclear Data Sheets for A=64
2021, Nuclear Data Sheets
The evaluated experimental data are presented and evaluated for 13 known nuclides of mass 64 (Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Ga, Ge, As, Se). For each nuclide, the best values combining all available data are recommended for spectroscopic properties. No excited states have been identified in ⁶⁴Ti, ⁶⁴As, and ⁶⁴Se. Only one excited state in ⁶⁴V as an isomer, and three in ⁶⁴Cr have been identified. Data for excited states in ⁶⁴Mn, ⁶⁴Fe, and ⁶⁴Co remain limited. ⁶⁴Ni, ⁶⁴Cu, and ⁶⁴Zn are the most studied nuclides through various reactions and decays, followed by ⁶⁴Ga and ⁶⁴Ge. In the opinion of the evaluators, there are several incomplete or discrepant aspects of the high-spin portion of the level scheme for ⁶⁴Zn above ≈5 MeV excitation which need to be resolved in further experiments using large γ-detector arrays. The decay schemes of ⁶⁴Ti β⁻, ⁶⁴As ε and ⁶⁴Se ε are unknown, while very little information is available for ⁶⁴V β⁻ and ⁶⁴Cr β⁻. The decay schemes of ⁶⁴Mn β⁻, ⁶⁴Fe β⁻, ⁶⁴Co β⁻ and ⁶⁴Ge ε are somewhat better known, but still considered incomplete by evaluators. The decay scheme of ⁶⁴Ga ε decay is known in detail, however there is the possibility of additional levels populated above 4713 keV, as the Q(ε) value is 7171 keV. The β⁻, β⁺ and ε decay modes of ⁶⁴Cu are well known, as this radionuclide is of great importance in applications, for example, as a dosimeter for neutron flux determination in nuclear reactors, and as a radiopharmaceutical for positron emission tomography (PET). This work supersedes earlier full evaluations of A=64 by 2007Si04, 1996Si12, 1991Si03, 1979Ha35 and 1974Au04.
Nuclear Data Sheets for A = 52
2015, Nuclear Data Sheets
The nuclear structure data belonging to all nuclei with mass number A=52 have been compiled and evaluated using experimental nuclear reaction data and decay data available before July 10, 2015. This evaluaton supersedes the previous publication for this msss chain (2007Hu08, Nuclear Data Sheets 108, 773 (2007)). The data for the ε decay of ⁵²Co (104 ms) and the ε decay of ⁵²Ni (40.8 ms) are both incomplete, so new studies would be useful.
Nuclear Data Sheets for A = 54
2014, Nuclear Data Sheets
The 2005 evaluation for A=54 (2006Hu08) has been updated. Detailed experimental nuclear structure data and decay data for all nuclei with mass chain A=54 are presented in this current evaluation. The new data and information are given in following datasets:
- ⁵⁴Ca: ⁹Be(⁷⁶Ge, X) and Be(⁵⁵Sc, p), (⁵⁶Ti, 2p)
- ⁵⁴Sc: ⁵⁴Ca $β^{-}$ decay and ⁵⁴Sc IT decay
- ⁵⁴Ti: ⁵⁴Sc $β^{-}$ decay
- ⁵⁴Cr: ⁵⁴Mn ε decay, ⁵⁶Fe(μ, nupng), and ²³⁸U(⁶⁴Ni, Xγ)
- ⁵⁴Mn: ⁵¹V(²⁰Ne, Xγ), ⁵⁵Mn(p, pn), and ⁵⁶Fe(μ, nu2ng)
- ⁵⁴Fe: ⁵⁸Ni α decay, ⁹Be(⁵⁵Co, Xγ), ⁵⁴Fe(e, e'), ⁵⁴Fe(p, p'), and Coulomb Excitation
- ⁵⁴Co: ⁵⁴Ni ε decay, ⁵⁵Cu εp decay, ²⁸Si(³²S, αpnγ), ⁵⁴Fe(p,n), and ⁵⁴Fe(³He, t)
- ⁵⁴Ni: ⁵⁴Ni IT decay, ⁵⁵Zn εp decay, ⁹Be(⁵⁵Ni, Xγ), and ²⁴Mg(³²S, Xγ)
- ⁵⁴Zn: Ni(⁵⁸Ni, X)
