Quadrupole collectivity in silicon isotopes approaching neutron number N = 28
Quadrupole deformation parameters, |β2,(p,p′)|, have been deduced for 36,38,40Si from measured inelastic proton-scattering cross sections. Due to the strong Z = 14 subshell gap, low-lying quadrupole collectivity in these nuclei is attributed to the excitation of valence neutrons. Enhanced collectivity at N = 26 indicates a reduced N = 28 shell gap at large neutron excess in this chain of isotop...
متن کاملQuadrupole collectivity in neutron-rich Fe and Cr isotopes.
Intermediate-energy Coulomb excitation measurements are performed on the N ≥ 40 neutron-rich nuclei (66,68)Fe and (64)Cr. The reduced transition matrix elements providing a direct measure of the quadrupole collectivity B(E2;2(1)(+) → 0(1)(+)) are determined for the first time in (68)Fe(42) and (64)Cr(40) and confirm a previous recoil distance method lifetime measurement in (66)Fe(40). The resul...
متن کاملFast Rotation of the N = Z Nucleus 36 Ar
A highly-deformed rotational band has been identified in the N = Z nucleus 36 Ar. At high spin the band is observed to its presumed termination at I π = 16 + , while at low spin it has been firmly linked to previously known states in 36 Ar. Spins, parities, and absolute excitation energies have thus been determined throughout the band. Lifetime measurements establish a large low-spin quadrupole...
متن کاملOnset of collectivity in neutron-rich Sr and Kr isotopes: Prompt spectroscopy after Coulomb excitation at REX-ISOLDE, CERN
A rapid onset of quadrupole deformation is known to occur around the neutron number 60 in the neutron-rich Zr and Sr isotopes. This shape change has made the neutronrich A = 100 region an active area of experimental and theoretical studies for many decades now. We report in this contribution new experimental results in the neutron rich 96,98Sr investigated by safe Coulomb excitation of radioact...
متن کاملEnhanced quadrupole collectivity at N = 40: the case of neutron-rich Fe isotopes.
The transition rates for the 2(1)+ states in (62,64,66)Fe were studied using the recoil distance Doppler-shift technique applied to projectile Coulomb excitation reactions. The deduced E2 strengths illustrate the enhanced collectivity of the neutron-rich Fe isotopes up to N = 40. The results are interpreted using the generalized concept of valence proton symmetry which describes the evolution o...
