Observation of -vibrations and alignments built on non-ground-state configurations in 156Dy

S. N. T. Majola, D. J. Hartley, L. L. Riedinger +25

The exact nature of the lowest rotational bands in all deformed nuclei remains obscure. Traditionally they are assumed to be collective vibrations of the nuclear shape…

First candidates for γ vibrational bands built on the [505]11/2- neutron orbital in odd-A Dy isotopes

S. N. T. Majola, M. A. Sithole, L. Mdletshe +67

Rotational structures have been measured using the Jurogam II and GAMMASPHERE arrays at low spin following the 155Gd(α,2n)157Dy and 148Nd(12C, 5n)155Dy reactions at 25 and 65 MeV,…

Spectroscopy of low spin states in 157Dy: Search for evidence of enhanced octupole correlations

S. N. T. Majola, R. A. Bark, L. Bianco +40

Low-spin states of 157Dy have been studied using the JUROGAM II array, following the 155Gd (α, 2n) reaction at a beam energy of 25 MeV. The level scheme of 157Dy has been expanded…

Direct Evidence of Octupole Deformation in Neutron-Rich Ba

B. Bucher, S. Zhu, C. Y. Wu +31

The neutron-rich nucleus Ba (=11.5 s) is expected to exhibit some of the strongest octupole correlations among nuclei with mass numbers less than 200. Until no…

Multi-quasiparticle structures up to spin in the odd-odd nucleus Ta

X. Wang, D. J. Hartley, M. A. Riley +22

High-spin states in the odd-odd nucleus Ta have been populated in the Sn(V,3n) reaction. Two multi-quasiparticle structures have been extended significantly…

Quadrupole Moments of Collective Structures up to Spin in Er and Er: A Challenge for Understanding Triaxiality in Nuclei

X. Wang, M. A. Riley, J. Simpson +21

The transition quadrupole moments, , of four weakly populated collective bands up to spin in Er have been measured to be …
