Six-quasiparticle isomer in Nd-140
(2006) In Physical Review C (Nuclear Physics) 74(3).- Abstract
- A search for isomeric states was performed in the nucleus Nd-140(60)80 using in-beam gamma-ray spectroscopy and the Te-126(O-18,4n) reaction. Prompt and delayed gamma-ray coincidences were measured with the AFRODITE spectrometer using the pulsed beam delivered by the Separated Sector Cyclotron of iThemba LABS. One new isomer was identified, with spin-parity I-pi=20(+) and lifetime T-1/2 >= 400 ns, at an excitation energy E-x=7430 keV. The lifetime of the 10(+) isomer at E-x=3619 keV was determined to be 32.9(1.8) ns, confirming the previously reported value. The configuration of the I-pi=20(+) isomer is assigned based on configuration-dependent cranked Nilsson-Strutinsky (CNS) calculations as a state pi(d(5/2)g(7/2))(10)(+-4)circle... (More)
