Excitation energies of superdeformed States in 196Pb: towards a systematic study of the second well in Pb isotopes.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The excitation energy of the lowest-energy superdeformed band in 196Pb is established using the techniques of time-correlated gamma-ray spectroscopy. Together with previous measurements on 192Pb and 194Pb, this result allows superdeformed excitation energies, binding energies, and two-proton and two-neutron separation energies to be studied systematically, providing stringent tests for current nuclear models. The results are examined for evidence of a "superdeformed shell gap."

SPECTROSCOPY OF SUPERDEFORMED Pb ISOTOPES
In the mass region around A = 190 about 70 superdeformed (SD) rotational bands are known in 25 different nuclei [1]. In many cases several bands have been found which are built on excited states in the SD potential energy minimum. The nature of these excitations has been the subject of experimental and theoretical investigations in recent years. In the odd-even and odd-odd nuclei it seems clear...

Constrained Relativistic Mean Field (RMF) calculations have been carried out to estimate excitation energies relative to the ground state for superdeformed bands in the mass regions A ∼ 190 and A ∼ 150. It is shown that RMF theory is able to successfully reproduce the recently measured superdeformed minima in Hg and Pb nuclei. Superdeformation has become the recent years one of the most interes...
متن کاملDirect decays from superdeformed states in 192Pb observed using time-correlated gamma-ray spectroscopy.
Correlations of decays above and below isomeric states in the normally deformed minimum of 192Pb have been used to identify discrete transitions in the decay of the superdeformed (SD) band. The data establish the absolute excitation energy of the lowest observed SD level as 4.425 MeV. Extrapolation to the bandhead indicates that the excitation energy of the superdeformed well in 192Pb is 0.5 Me...
متن کاملRemoval of cesium through adsorption from aqueous solutions: a systematic review
Cesium radioactive isotopes (134Cs and 137Cs) are dangerous to human health due to their long half-life and high solubility in water. Nuclear experiments, wars, and nuclear plant accidents have been the main sources of Cs release into the environment. In recent years, several methods have been introduced for the elimination of Cs radioactive isotopes from contaminated wate...

Recently Khuzestan province in southwest of Iran is affected by dust storm phenomena. This feature makes some problem in agriculture, transportation, communication and human health side effect in this province. In the lack of enough researches on physical and chemical characteristics of this dust storm in Iran, a systematic investigation on these matters is necessary. In addition of Geochemistr...
