dc.description.abstract | Spin and parity assignment in 152gd investigating octupole structures The high-spin states of the nucleus ls2cd have been populated via the ls2sm (cr, 4n) 152Gd fusion-evaporation reaction at abeam energy of 45MeV. The emitted y rays were observed with the AFRODITE spectrometer afiay. The previously known decay scheme of 1s2cd was extended. Directional Correlation from Oriented states of nuclei (DCO) and linear polarization measurements were performed in order to assign spins and parities in the 1s2cd decay scheme. An alternative interpretation of the first excited Kn: 0* band, previously considered to be a B-vibration is discussed. | en_US |
