Directional correlations in the decay of 1200y 166Ho

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik A Atoms and Nuclei

Abstract

γγ-directional correlations have been measured between the ground state band transitions 6→4, 4→2 and 2→0 and the γ-rays depopulating the levels of the gamma vibrational band and the negative parity states of166Er. Thereby angular momenta could be assigned to the latter states andM2/E1 multipole mixtures determined for the depopulating γ-transitions. TheE2/M1 mixing ratios were obtained for a series ofI γI g transitions up toI γ=8+. These are used to investigate the angular momentum dependence of theE2/M1 admixtures.
