Protons of energy 3.2–4.2 MeV have been used to Coulomb excite the states in 133Cs. The thick-target gamma-ray yields and the angular distributions were measured using a 50 cm3 Ge(Li) detector. The measurements were used to extract the reduced transition probabilities, B (E2) and B(M1), and multipole mixing ratios (δ) for the various transitions. A spin assignment has been made to the 871.8 keV level on the basis of angular distribution data. The results obtained have been compared with those of other authors.

Low-lying negative parity levels in 45Sc were Coulomb excited with 2.5 to 3.5 MeV protons and 4 to 5 MeV 4He ions to test the weak coupling core-excitation model. A Ge(Li) detector was used to measure the gamma-ray yields. The 543, 976, 1408, and 1662 keV levels in 45Sc were Coulomb excited for the first time. Gamma-ray angular distributions were measured at 3.0 MeV proton energy in deducing multipole mixing ratios and spin values. Energy level measurements (in units of kiloelectronvolts) and spin values obtained are as follows: 976, 5/2, 7/2 and 1408, 7/2. The E2 and M1 reduced transition probabilities were determined for the six states. The 376, 720, 1237, 1408, and 1662 keV levels have properties consistent with the interpretation of coupling a 1f7/2 proton to the first 2+ core state.

Low-lying negative parity levels in 63Cu were Coulomb excited with 3.25 to 4.25 MeV protons to test the weak coupling core-excitation model. A Ge(Li) detector was used to measure the gamma-ray yields. The 1412, 1547, and 1861 keV levels in 63Cu were Coulomb excited for the first time. Gamma-ray angular distributions were measured at 4.25 MeV proton energy in deducing multipole mixing ratios and spin values. The E2 and M1 reduced transition probabilities were determined for the six states. The 669.6, 962, 1327, and 1547 keV levels have properties consistent with the interpretation of coupling a 2p3/2 proton to the first 2+core state. The present results were compared with the available particle–core and particle–phonon model calculations.

The excited states of 139La up to 1800 keV were studied by means of Coulomb excitation of 139La with protons varying in energy from 4.0 to 5.5 eV. The gamma-ray yields and angular distributions were measured with a Ge(Li) detector. The levels at 1715.0 and 1767.2 keV were Coulomb excited newly. The results of gamma-ray angular distribution measurements establish spin values of 3/2+, 9/2+, 7/2+, 5/2+, and 3/2+ for the 830, 1219.1, 1536.3, 1715.0, and 1767.2 keV levels, respectively. The reduced E2 and M1 transition probabilities were obtained for 11 transitions. The results were compared with the available theoretical calculations.

The stable isotopes of xenon, which have attracted interest for a number of reasons, span a transitional region that evolves from γ-soft structures for the lighter mass isotopes to nearly spherical 136Xe with a closed neutron shell. The nature of this transition, which is gradual, is not well understood. To provide detailed spectroscopic information on the Xe isotopes, we have studied 130,132,134,136Xe at the University of Kentucky Accelerator Laboratory using inelastic neutron scattering and γ-ray detection. These measurements yielded γ-ray angular distributions, branching ratios, multipole mixing ratios, and level lifetimes (from the Doppler-shift attenuation method), which allowed the determination of reduced transition probabilities and provided insight into the structure of these nuclei.

Energy levels below 2.2 MeV excitation in 114,116Cd have been investigated using the (n, n′γ) reaction. Gamma-ray angular distributions were measured, and energy levels, spins, and gamma-ray multipole mixing ratios were deduced. Levels and their spins have been confirmed at 1134 (0), 1210 (2), 1283 (4), 1365 (2), 1733 (4), and 1843 (2) keV for 14Cd and at 1213 (2), 1220 (4), and 1381 (0) keV for 116Cd. New spin assignments have been made for the levels at 1861 (3) and 2049 (3) keV for 114Cd and at 1644 (2,3) and 1917 (3) keV for 116Cd. The states at 1959 keV in 114Cd and 1923 keV in 116Cd are shown to be consistent with assignments of 3.

Yield Curves

From a recent experiment in this laboratory (Shute et al. 1962) on the elastic scattering of protons from 12C, resonance levels (E13N, J1t) of 13N were obtained at the laboratory bombarding energies (Ep) shown in Table 1. To confirm these results, an investigation of the yield and angular distribution of gamma rays from the reaction 12C(p'YO)13N and 12C(p'Yl)13N was undertaken. Accordingly, the theoretical angular distributions, W(8), for the gamma ray (Yo) to the ground state of 13Na-) and also for the gamma ray (Yl) to the 1st excited state of 13Na+) were evaluated on the assumptions that overlap of levels in 13N is small and lowest order multipoles are involved. As angular distributions are parity insensitive, these were found to be identical for the two gamma rays expected. The simpler of these angular distributions are also shown on the table. The expected angular distributions indicate that 90� is a suitable angle for yield curves.

Gamma-ray linear polarization and angular distribution formulas are presented in terms of the phase-defined reduced matrix elements of Rose and Brink. In particular, the mixing ratios are phase consistently related to reduced matrix elements of interaction multipole operators which are also well defined in phase. The mixing ratios extracted from the measurements of gamma-ray angular distribution and linear polarization can then be compared in both magnitude and sign with the predictions of nuclear models. The full potential of a gamma-ray linear polarization measurement is demonstrated by the discussion of a recent measurement.

Correlation Data

Both the time spectra and the angular distributions of the annihilation gamma rays have been measured for positrons annihilating in Teflon and polyethylene in an attempt to clarify which annihilation mechanisms account for the various lifetimes in these materials. Some authors have suggested that, in addition to the longest lifetime component, one of the shorter lived components also arises from the pickoff annihilation of orthopositronium. If this were the case, substantially more positronium would be formed than is indicated by the intensity of the longest lived component alone, and should be detectable through a measurement of the intensity of the low momentum portion of the momentum distribution obtained from the angular correlation data. In the present work, four lifetimes are apparent in the time spectra although there is considerable uncertainty in resolving the two shortest components. The angular distribution data, in both cases, yielded a low momentum component whose intensity indicates that only the longest lifetime component arises from pickoff annihilation of orthopositronium. The three shorter lifetime components are discussed.
