Abstract

The half-life of theI,K π=2, 2 state at 1318 keV in174Yb has been measured in the173Yb(n, γ) reaction to be 0.486±0.015 ns. This half-life determines the absolute transition probabilities of the gamma-ray transitions to the ground state rotational band yielding the following hindrance factors relative to the Weisskopf estimate:F W(M 2; 2, 2→0, 0+)=350;F W(M2; 2, 2→2, 0+)≧77F W(M 2;2, 2→4, 0+)>740;F W(E 1; 2, 2→2, 0+)=4.5×106;F W(E 3; 2, 2→2, 0+)≈0.1;F W(E 3; 2, 2→4, 0+)≈0.4. These data are compared to analogous transitions in neighboring nuclei.
