All levels below 5.2 MeV in 25Mg have been studied using the reaction 25Mg(p, p′γ). In-elastically scattered protons were detected in an annular surface barrier detector located at 180°; coincidence gamma-ray spectra were obtained at Ge (Li) detector angles of 90°, 45°, and 135°. Level energies were determined from unshifted gamma-ray energies recorded in the 90° spectra. Lifetimes were obtained from the attenuated Doppler shift of gamma-ray energies recorded in spectra taken at forward and backward angles. Branching ratios were deduced from the combined data of all three angles. The identification of levels as members of rotational bands is discussed, and transition strengths deduced from the present measurements are compared with predictions of the simple rotational model.

All levels between 5.2 and 6.1 MeV in 25Mg have been studied using the reaction 25Mg(p,p′γ). Inelastically scattered protons were detected in an annular surface barrier detector located at 180°; coincidence gamma-ray spectra were obtained at Ge(Li) detector angles of 90, 45, and 135°. Level energies were determined from unshifted gamma-ray energies recorded in the 90° spectra. Lifetimes were obtained from the attenuated Doppler shift of gamma-ray energies recorded in spectra taken at forward and backward angles. Branching ratios were deduced from the combined data of all three angles. The identification of levels as members of rotational bands is discussed, and transition strengths deduced from the present measurements are compared with predictions of the simple rotational model. In particular, evidence is presented for the identification of a level at 5535 keV as the 11/2 member of the ground state band, levels at 5522 and 5794 keV as the 5/2 and 11/2 members of the Kπ = 1/2− band, and a level at 6040 keV as the 11/2 member of a Kπ = 9/2+ band.

Nineteen levels in 24Mg have been studied utilizing the reaction 12C(16O, αγ)24Mg. Angular correlation measurements have established the spins and parities of levels at excitation energies of 7.35, 7.56, 7.62, 8.44, 8.65, 9.00, 9.15, and 10.1 MeV as 2+, 1−, 3−, 1−, 2+, 2+, 1−, and 0+ respectively. Levels at 8.12 and 13.18 MeV have been identified as the 6+ and 8+ members of the K = 0 ground-state rotational band; levels at 7.81 and 9.52 MeV have been identified as the 5+ and 6+ members of the K = 2 rotational band based on the 2+ level at 4.23 MeV. The existence of doublets has been established at excitation energies of 8.44 and 9.52 MeV; in each case, one member of the doublet is populated in the beta decay of 24Al, and the present experiment indicates that these two levels have spin and parity 4+. Assignments are also suggested for levels at 7.75 MeV (1+) and 8.36 MeV (2+). Gamma-ray spectra have been obtained for levels at 8.86, 9.28, and 9.46 MeV. The properties of levels assigned to rotational bands are compared to the predictions of the rotational model for an axially symmetric nucleus.

SynopsisLevels in the ground state bands of 158Dy, 160Dy and 162Dy have been populated by (α, 2n) reactions on metallic targets of separated 156Gd, 158Gd and 160Gd isotopes. Two Ge(Li) detectors were used to study singles gamma-ray spectra, gamma-ray angular distributions, gamma-gamma coincidence spectra and relative yields of gamma-rays for bombarding energies from 20 to 27 MeV. Transitions from all levels in the ground state bands up to the 12+ member were identified and the following level energies in keV established: 158Dy: 0 (0+), 99·0 (2+), 317·4 (4+), 637·9 (6+), 1044·1 (8+), 1520·1 (10+) and 2049·4 (12+); 160Dy: 0 (0+), 86·7 (2+), 283·7 (4+), 581·4 (6+), 967·4 (8+), 1429·0 (10+), 1951·7 (12+); 162Dy: 0 (0+), 80·7 (2+), 265·7 (4+), 548·5 (6+), 921·1 (8+), 1374·8 (10+) and 1901·0 (12+). There is weak evidence for the 14+ levels in 158Dy and 160Dy. The level energies are compared with calculated values using the variable moment of inertia model.

An extended orbiting cluster model (EOCM), which includes structural configurations in terms of two-centre nuclear shapes, is studied. In all the representative reactions with observed resonances studied here, the relative separation distance Δ R between the surfaces of the two nuclei in the "equivalent" dinuclear molecular configuration is found to be less than 2 fm, the range of attractive nuclear forces. The moments of inertia for the equivalent dinuclear shapes are related with one full rotation of the intermediate composite systems. Applications are also made to reactions with no observed resonances.

A study has been made of several high spin members of the ground state (Kπ = 1/2+) and first-excited state (Kπ = 3/2+) rotational bands in the presumed oblate nucleus 29Si. Gamma-ray angular distribution and linear polarization measurements have confirmed the spin and parity of the 4081 keV level to be 7/2+, and levels at 4742 and 5283 keV have been shown to have Jπ = 9/2+ and (7/2+, 3/2+) respectively. Branching and mixing ratios for the transitions from these states have also been determined; in conjunction with previously measured lifetimes, transition strengths are calculated. The results are compared with the predictions of a Nilsson-model calculation including the effects of coriolis mixing of the low-lying positive parity bands.

In the framework of the Alpha Cluster Model extended calculations of form factors of elastic and inelastic [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] (7.66 MeV) electron scattering on 12C were performed. Two possible alpha cluster configurations (linear and triangular) were considered for states assigned to different rotational bands and although the configuration mixture was found to be important for explanation of the inelastic monopole form factor, a fully consistent picture, including all available data, was not obtained.
