Level structure and gamma-gamma directional-correlation studies in147Pm

Исследование структуры уровней и гамма-гамма корреляций в147Pm

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento A (1971-1996)

Summary

The level structure of147Pm is studied with a high-efficiency sum coincidence spectrometer. The levels at 182, 320 and 725 keV are confirmed and their decay modes are also proposed. The gamma-gamma directional correlations involving the (194–531) and (595–91) keV cascades in147Pm are studied. The spin of the 725 keV level is established to be 5/2+. The mixing ratios for the 194 and 595 keV gamma transitions are estimated to be δ=−3.65±0.84 and 0.27±0.11, respectively. The half-life of the 686 keV level determined by a slope method employing a delayed-coincidence technique isT 1/2=(0.22±0.01) ns. The experimentalM1 andE2 transition probabilities of the gamma-rays following the decay of the 686, 531, 410 and 91 keV levels are compared with the single-particle estimates.

Riassunto

Si studia la struttura dei livelli di147Pm con uno spettrometro a coincidenza di somma ad alta efficienza. Si confermano i livelli a 182, 320 e 725 keV e si propongono i loro modi di decadimento. Si studiano le correlazioni direzionali gamma-gamma che comprendono le cascate di (194–531) e (595–91) keV in147Pm. Lo spin del livello a 725 keV è fissato uguale a 5/2+. I rapporti di mescolamento stimati per le transizioni gamma a 194 e 595 keV sono, rispettivamente, δ=−3.65±0.84 e 0.27±0.11. La vita media del livello a 686 keV determinata mediante un metodo della pendenza che usa una tecnica di coincidenza ritardata èT 1/2=(0.22±0.01) ns. Si confrontano le probabilità sperimentali delle transizioniM1 eE2 dei raggi gamma che seguono i decadimenti dei livelli a 686, 531, 410 e 91 keV con le stime di singola particella.

Резюме

Исследуется структура уровней147Pm с помощью спектрометра с высокой эффективностью. Обнаружены уровни с энергиями 182, 320 и 720 кэВ и предлагаются их моды распада. Исследуются гамма-гамма корреляции, включающие каскады (194–531) и (595–91) кэВ в147Pm. Спин уровня 725 кэВ определен, как 5/2+. Оцениваются отношения смешивания для гамма-переходов 194 и 595 кэВ, которые сответствеино равны δ=−3.65±0.84 и +0.27±0.11. Время жизни уровня 686 кэВ составляетT 1/2(686 кэВ)=(0.22±0.01) нс. Экспериментальные вероятностиM1 иE2 переходов для гамма-лучей при распаде уровней 686, 531, 410 и 91 кэВ сравниваются с одночастичными оценками.
