Exploration for Astromers near Sn with the Canadian Penning Trap
A. A. Valverde, S. Cupp, A. Gross +26
Nuclear isomers can have significant impacts on astrophysical nucleosynthesis processes, with recent efforts demonstrating that the population of isomeric states with different hal…
Evolution of chirality from transverse wobbling in Pr
N. Sensharma, U. Garg, Q. B. Chen +20
Chirality is a distinct signature that characterizes triaxial shapes in nuclei. We report the first observation of chirality in the nucleus Pr using a high-statistics Gamma…
Astrophysical significance of the isomer Ag demonstrated through direct mass measurement
F. Rivero, M. Brodeur, J. A. Clark +18
The abundance of elements heavier than iron produced via the astrophysical rapid-neutron capture process depends sensitively on the atomic mass of the involved nuclei as well as th…
High-spin spectroscopy and the onset of quasicollective structures in Ga
F. E. Idoko, A. D. Ayangeakaa N. Sensharma, C. J. Chiara +30
The intermediate- and high-spin level structure of the odd- Ga nucleus was investigated via the Mg(Ca, ) fusion evaporation reaction at a beam energy…
Precise Mass Measurement of the Longest Odd-Odd Chain of \boldmath Ground States
B. Liu, M. Brodeur, J. A. Clark +14
Precise mass measurements of the ground and isomeric states of the odd-odd Rh were performed using the Canadian Penning Trap at Argonne National Laborat…
Direct observation of and decay from a high-spin long-lived isomer in Ta
J. L. Chen, H. Watanabe, P. M. Walker +20
Ta (, ) is located in the neutron-rich region where a prolate-to-oblate shape transition via triaxial softness is predicted to take place. A pr…
