Lifetimes of three of the low-lying excited states in 29P, populated in the 28Si(p,γ) reaction, have been determined using the Doppler shift attenuation method. The mean lifetimes of states at 4.085, 1.956, and 1.385 MeV were found to be 15 ± 4, 370 ± 80, and 200 ± 60 fs.Angular distribution measurements have also been performed on gamma rays resulting from the decay of the 4.085 MeV resonance level. The decay was found to go via states at 3.107 MeV (3%), 1.956 MeV (54%), and 1.385 MeV (43%). The spin of the resonance level was uniquely assigned as 7/2 and the multipole mixing ratios of the 2.129 and 1.385 MeV transitions as + 0.17 ± 0.05 and + 0.303 ± 0.050 respectively. The consequent transition rates indicate that the parity of the resonance level is positive.

The gamma rays from the first two excited states of 15O and 15N populated by the 14N + d, T(16O, αγ)15N, and 16O(3He, αγ)15O reactions have been observed with a Ge(Li) spectrometer. The measured energy separations are 50 ± 5 keV for the 15O doublet and 28.5 ± 3 keV for the 15N doublet. The difference between the 5.24-MeV gamma ray from 15O and the 5.27-MeV gamma ray from 15N is 29 ± 1 keV. From Doppler-shift and broadening measurements of the energies of the gamma rays from the T(16O, αγ)15N and 16O(3He, αγ)15O reactions, information on the mean lifetimes of the states was obtained. The mean lifetimes of the 5.30-and 5.27-MeV states of 15N are 4.3 ± 1.8 × 10−14 sec and > 10−12 sec respectively. The mean lifetimes of the 5.19- and 5.24-MeV states of 15O are < 3 × 10−13 sec and > 10−12 sec respectively.

A search is described for an excited Kn = 0+ rotational band based on the 6� 44 MeV level of 24Mg. Mean nuclear lifetimes have been measured by the Doppler shift attenuation method using the 12C('60,a)24Mg reaction and the results are 't'm = 66�29, 28�7 and 13�3 fs for levels at 6'44, 8�65 and 10� 58 MeV respectively. The absolute transition rates found for the y decays from the 6�44 and 8�65 MeV levels are in good agreement with the results of shell model calculations if it is assumed that these levels are the 0+ and 2 + members respectively of the excited Kn = 0+ rotational band. Based on this assumption, a result Qoo = 0�48 �0�08b is obtained for the intraband quadrupole moment. From a study of the 23Na(p, y) reaction, it is established that the J = 4 levels at 12� 63 and 13�05 MeV do not decay by enhanced E2 transitions to the 8� 65 MeV level. This suggests that neither of these levels is the 4 + member of the excited Kn = 0+ rotational band. An assignment of J" = 4+ is made to one member of the doublet at 10�58 MeV.

Decay Gamma

The decay modes of the 7/2−, 3702 keV level in 25Al have been studied at the Ep = 1490 keV resonance in the 24Mg(p,γ)25Al reaction. The decay gamma rays were observed using a 25 cm3 Ge(Li) detector. A previously unreported 2% transition from the resonance to the level at 2723 keV has been observed. The angular distribution of this gamma ray admits only a spin of 7/2 for the 2723 keV level. The lifetime of the 2723 keV level was measured with the Doppler shift attenuation method (DSAM) at the 1660 keV resonance and was found to be [Formula: see text]. The lifetime of the 5/2+, 1790 keV level has been measured using the DSAM and has been found to be [Formula: see text]. From Doppler shift measurements a lower limit for the lifetime of the 3/2+, 945 keV level of [Formula: see text] was obtained. From angular distribution measurements at the Ep = 1490 keV resonance, the following multipole mixing ratios have been measured: δ(R → 0) = 0.00 ± 0.02; δ(R → 1790) = −0.02 ± 0.02; δ(R → 2723) = 0.15 ± 0.30; [Formula: see text]; δ(1790 → 945) = −0.15 ± 0.05; δ(945 → 0) = 0.35 ± 0.10 or 1.7 ± 0.2; δ(945 → 451) = −0.15 ± 0.05 or 2.6 ± 0.4. Comparisons with data in the mirror nucleus 25Mg have been made.

The excited states of 73 As have been investigated via the 73 Ge ( p , n γ)73 As reaction with proton beam energies from 2.5–4.3 MeV. The lifetimes of the levels at 769.6, 860.5, 1177.8, 1188.7, 1274.9, 1344.1, 1557.1 and 1975.2 keV excitation energies have been measured for the first time using the Doppler shift attenuation method. The angular distributions have been used to assign the spins and the multipole mixing ratios using statistical theory for compound nuclear reactions. The ambiguity in the spin values for the various levels has been removed. The multipole mixing ratios for eight γ-transitions have been newly measured.

Mean Lifetimes

The mean lifetimes of the 0.871-MeV state of 17O(E2) and the 6.13-MeV state of 16O(E3) have been measured by a new recoil method using a Ge(Li) gamma-ray detector. The data yield mean lifetimes of (2.33 ± 0.27) × 10−10 and (2.5 ± 0.2) × 10−11 sec for the states in 17O and 16O respectively. The recoil method is generally applicable to the measurement of lifetimes greater than about 5 × 10−12 sec and provides a technique for a region of time where neither direct electronic timing nor Doppler-shift attenuation methods are accurate.

The energies, gamma-ray branching ratios, and mean nuclear lifetimes of the six lowest lying levels in 35Cl have been measured. Gamma rays following the reaction 32S(α,pγ)35Cl were studied using two Ge(Li) detectors with 15-cm3 and 40-cm3 active volumes respectively. The lifetimes of the five lowest lying levels were measured using the Doppler shift attenuation method, with the results: 1219 keV, [Formula: see text]; 1763 keV, 0.55 ± 0.15 ps; 2646 keV, 0.30 ± 0.09 ps; 2695 keV, <0.03 ps; and 3003 keV, <0.05 ps. The lifetime of the 3163-keV level was measured to be 60 ± 7 ps, using a recoil distance method. The level structure is discussed taking into account known lifetimes, spins, parities, and gamma-ray mixing ratios.
