AbstractAbstract
[en] Results of an exact treatment of the pairing transition from harmonic vibration to deformed rotation are compared to the results of the recently introduced ''critical point'' description. The exact results provide a microscopic justification for the assumptions used to find relevant analytic solutions of the collective pairing Hamiltonian. The energies and transition intensities from the two approaches are found to be in close agreement. Comparison to available data on the Pb isotopes suggests that 208Pb is very close to the critical-point of the pairing phase transition

AbstractAbstract
[en] We discuss a phenomenological picture consisting of two- and three-level mixing models to describe the low-lying 0+ states in 30Mg and 32Mg, respectively. Within this approach, self-consistent solutions exist that are in good agreement with the available experimental information. The inclusion of a third state, namely the neutrons configuration, resolves the ‘puzzle’ that results from a two-level model interpretation of the 30Mg(t, p)32Mg reaction data, and at the same time provides a consistent interpretation of strengths. Our analysis indicates a 30Mg ground-state dominated by the spherical () component while 32Mg emerges naturally and robustly as dominated by deformed ( and configurations), at the 95% level. (paper)

AbstractAbstract
[en] High-spin states in the N=Z nucleus 72Kr were populated using the 40Ca(36Ar,2p2n) reaction at a beam energy of 145 MeV. The yrast band has been observed up to a tentative spin of 20ℎ. Nonyrast rotational structures have also been observed for the first time. The alignment of g9/2 protons and neutrons in the yrast band is observed to be significantly delayed relative to the heavier even-even Kr isotopes. Exact deformed cranked shell model calculations suggest that this could be due to the combined effect of isovector (T=1) and isoscalar (T=0) neutron-proton pairing correlations

AbstractAbstract
[en] The intrinsic quadrupole moment Q0 of superdeformed rotational bands in A∼150 nuclei depends on the associated single-particle configuration. We have derived an empirical formula based on the additivity of effective quadrupole moments of single-particle orbitals that describes existing measurements from 142Sm to 152Dy . To further test the formula, the predicted Q0 moments for two superdeformed bands in 146Gd of 14.05 eb were confronted with a new measurement yielding 13.9±0.4 eb and 13.9±0.3 eb , respectively. This excellent agreement provides empirical evidence of extreme single-particle behavior in highly deformed, collective systems

AbstractAbstract
[en] We present a semi-classical analysis of the B(M1) and B(E2) transition probabilities in the shears bands in 193-199Pb as a function of the shears angle. This provides a semi-empirical confirmation of the shears mechanism proposed by S. Frauendorf using the Tilted-Axis-Cranking model. We interpret this as a consequence of a residual interaction between the proton and neutron blades, and it is shown that the main ingredient of this effective force can be described by a P2(θ) term with a strength of 400-600 keV. Such an interaction can be mediated through the core by particle-vibration coupling. The competition between the shears and the rotation of the core is investigated within the framework of a classical solution of two particles-plus-rotor model

AbstractAbstract
[en] We have studied the unresolved γ-ray spectrum of three ytterbium nuclei produced in heavy-ion fusion reactions and measured the two damping widths, Γμ, the spreading (compound-damping) width, and Γrot, the rotational damping width, together with Pnar, the probability that the population enters and leaves a given state via the same component of the wave function. Our results for Γμ and Γrot are in good agreement with theoretical expectations, as well as with those of other groups using different methods. Our results for Pnar lead to a new method for quantitative evaluation of the full order-to-chaos transition in these Yb nuclei. Finally, we provide the first evidence for the motional narrowing of Γrot in nuclei. The basic physics occurring in this region is level mixing, which our simulation technique reproduces surprisingly well

AbstractAbstract
[en] We have developed a new method to study the order-to-chaos transition in rotational nuclei. Energy correlations between successive γ-rays are used to determine the average complexity of the levels and thereby the ratio of the interaction between levels to the level spacing. γ-Rays from fusion reactions, leading to 168,169,170Yb nuclei, were measured with Gammasphere, and the measured ratios span the range from nearly fully ordered to nearly fully chaotic

AbstractAbstract
[en] We measured the ratio of the fission probabilities of 234U* relative to 236U* formed via an (α,α(prime)) direct reactions using the STARS array at the 88-inch cyclotron at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. This ratio has a shape similar to the ratio of neutron capture probabilities from 233U(n; f) and 235U(n; f), indicating the alpha reactions likely formed a compound nucleus. This result indicates that the ratios of fission exit channel probabilities for two actinide nuclei populated via (α, α(prime)) can be used to determine an unknown fission cross section relative to a known one. The validity of the External Surrogate Ratio Method (ESRM) is tested and the results support the conclusions of Burke et al. [1]

AbstractAbstract
[en] Neutron-rich nuclei around A∼100 were populated as fission fragments produced by the 238U(α,f) fusion-fission reaction. The deexcitation γ rays were detected by Gammasphere in coincidence with the detection of both fission fragments by the Rochester 4π heavy-ion detector array, CHICO. This technique allows Doppler-shift corrections to be applied for the observed γ rays on an event-by-event basis thus establishing the origin of γ rays from either fission fragment. In addition, it allows observation of γ-ray transitions from states with short lifetimes and offers the opportunity to study nuclear species beyond the reach of the spontaneous fission process. With these advantages, one can extend the spectroscopic study to higher spins than those derived using the thick-target technique, and to more neutron-rich nuclei than those derived from spontaneous fissions. Among the new and interesting phenomena identified in this rapid shape-changing region, the most distinct result is the evidence for a prolate-to-oblate shape transition occurring at 116Pd, which may have important implications to our understanding of the shell structure for neutron-rich nuclei
