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…
Beta-decay Half Lives beyond Ca: A Systematic Survey of Decay Properties approaching the Neutron Dripline
W. -J. Ong, Z. Y. Xu, R. Grzywacz +83
In an experiment performed at the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) using the FRIB Decay Station initiator (FDSi), 15 new half lives of isotopes near Ca were measured.…
Triaxiality and shape dynamics in Ge
T. M. Kowalewski, A. D. Ayangeakaa, N. Sensharma +31
The electromagnetic properties of low-lying states in Ge were investigated via multi-step Coulomb excitation of a Ge beam impinging on a Pb target at the ATLA…
Universal Effective Charges in the and Shells
T. H. Ogunbeku, J. M. Allmond, T. J. Gray +79
The 247-keV state in Sc, populated in the decay of Ca, is reported here as a nanosecond isomer with a half-life of 26.0(22) ns. The state is interpreted as the $…
Investigation of P levels near the proton threshold by Nuclear Resonance Fluorescence and the impact on the Si(p,)P thermonuclear rate
David Gribble, Christian Iliadis, Robert V. F. Janssens +13
We investigated the nuclear structure of P near the proton threshold using Nuclear Resonance Fluorescence (NRF) to refine the properties of key resonances in the Si(p…
Gamma decay of the Sm Isovector Giant Dipole Resonance: Smekal-Raman Scattering as a Novel Probe of Nuclear Ground-State Deformation
J. Kleemann, N. Pietralla, U. Friman-Gayer +19
Gamma decays of the isovector giant dipole resonance (GDR) of the deformed nucleus Sm from -Smekal-Raman and elastic scattering were measured using linearly polarize…
