The relative intensities of X rays and γ rays from the decay of 182Ta were measured precisely using Si(Li) and HPGe detectors. The intensities of the different components of K and L X rays were measured for the first time. The conversion electron intensities for the transitions with energy above 800 keV from the 182Ta decay were measured using a mini-orange electron spectrometer and the internal conversion coefficients for various transitions in 182W deduced. The (M + N)-conversion coefficients for the 1001.7, 1189.1, 1231.0, 1257.2, 1289.2, and 1342.7 keV transitions in 182W were measured for the first time. Also, γ–γ coincidence and correlation measurements were carried out using a HPGe–HPGe coincidence setup (2τ = 7 ns). The directional correlation coefficients for the 928–229, 960–229, 1002–229, 1044–229, 1158–229, 1223–229, and 1002–222 keV cascades in 182W are determined for the first time. The multipole mixing ratio for the 152, 156, 179, 222, 928, 1002, 1113, 1158, 1223, and 1231 keV transitions are deduced from the present directional correlation and conversion coefficient measurements. Experimental ratios of reduced transition probabilities for the transitions in 182W from positive and negative parity states are deduced and compared with the values predicted by the symmetric rotor model. From this comparison a unique K assignment of Kπ = 1+ and Kπ = 1− is made to the bands built on the 1257 and 1553 keV levels, respectively.

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.

The projected shell model (PSM) with the deformed single-particle states, generated by the standard Nilsson potential, is applied to study the negative-parity high spin states of [Formula: see text] nuclei. The nuclear structure quantities like band structure and back-bending in moment of inertia have been calculated with PSM method and are compared with the available experimental data. In addition, the reduced transition probabilities, i.e., B[Formula: see text] and B[Formula: see text], are also obtained for the yrast band of these isotopes for the first time by using PSM wave function. A multi-quasiparticle structure has been predicted for [Formula: see text] isotopes by the present PSM calculations.

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.

Negative parity energy states in 121–131 La have been studied using Projected Shell Model (PSM). Some nuclear structure properties like yrast spectra, back-bending in moment of inertia, reduced transition probabilities and band diagrams have been described. The experimental feature of the co-existence of prolate–oblate shapes in 125–131 La isotopes has been satisfactorily explained by PSM results. Comparison of the theoretical data with their experimental counterparts has also been made. From the calculations, it is found that the yrast states arise because of multi-quasiparticle states.

A further extension of a model of coherent quadrupole–octupole vibrations and rotations and its application to alternating-parity spectra in heavy even–even nuclei is presented. Within the model the yrast alternating-parity sequence includes the ground state band and the lowest negative parity levels with odd angular momenta, while the non-yrast sequences include excited β-bands and higher negative-parity levels. Electric transition operators reflecting the complex shape characteristics associated with the quadrupole–octupole vibration modes are introduced. By using them B(E1), B(E2) and B(E3) reduced transition probabilities within and between the different energy sequences are calculated. It is shown that the model successfully reproduces yrast and non-yrast alternating-parity bands together with the attendant B(E1)–B(E3) transition rates in the nuclei 154 Sm , 156 Gd and 100 Mo .

A compilation of the multipole mixing of 2′ + → 2 + transitions in 186Os, 188Os, 190Os and 192Os is given. In view of recent results obtained at our laboratory, indicating large anomalies in the conversion process of inhibited M1 transitions, the study has been extended for even-even Osmium nuclei. A series of experiments has been performed in which the conversion coefficients and transition probabilities were measured. The data of 2′ + → 2 + transitions were analysed by taking into account nuclear structure effects on the Ml internal conversion process. The M1 admixtures obtained are compared with Greiner′s calculations. Values of reduced transition probabilities B (E2, 0 → 2 +) , B (E2, 2′+ → 2+) , the mixing ratio δ = 〈2 || E2 || 2′〉 / 〈2 || M1 || 2′〉 and the transition branching ratio T (2′ → 2)/T(2′ → 0) are reported for second and higher 2+ states. The results are compared to the pairing-plus-quadrupole model calculations of Kumar and Baranger.

A theoretical study of the structure of some odd mass Rh nuclei in the A ~ 100 mass region is carried out by using the angular momentum projection technique implemented in the projected shell model (PSM). The influence of the high-j orbitals (h11/2 for neutrons and g9/2 for protons) on the structure of 107–113Rh isotopes is investigated in the present case by assuming an axial symmetry in the deformed basis. For these isotopes, the structure of multi-quasi-particle qp bands is studied along the yrast line in detail. Further, the phenomenon of back-bending is also studied theoretically and is found to be in agreement with the experimental data. The reduced transition probabilities, i.e., B(E2) and B(M1) for the yrast band are also obtained from the PSM wave functions for the first time, thereby providing an opportunity for the experimentalists to work for this data.

States in the transitional nucleus, 151Gd, excited by the (α,2n) reaction have been studied by gamma-ray and conversion electron measurements. Gamma-ray energies, intensities, excitation functions, and γ–γ coincidence measurements were used to establish the levels populated. Angular distributions involving measurements at seven angles from 0° to 90° and K-conversion coefficients have been used to make spin and parity assignments.The El character of the 65, 79, 340, 358, 406, and 462 keV transitions, which in the absence of K-conversion data had been tacitly assumed to be M1 by earlier workers leads to a significant revision of their parity assignments and interpretation of the level structure. The negative parity states at 1210, 1463, 1726, 2004, 2295, 2600, 2915, and 3237 keV form a well-developed rotational band based on the 11/2− [505] state at 1210 keV. The properties of this band in this nucleus are compared with those of the same band in a number of nearby nuclei. Two non-interacting negative parity bands with states at 0(7/2−), 706(11/2−), 1435(15/2−), 2078(19/2−), and 379(9/2−), 902(13/2−), 1511(17/2−), 2297(21/2−), respectively, have been found, as well as a number of other negative parity states of spin 7/2, 9/2, and 13/2. A complex positive band structure involving states at 784(11/2+), 852(13/2+), 1116(13/2+), 1346(17/2+), 1364(15/2+), 1677(17/2+), 1851(19/2+), 1853(21/2+), 2197(21/2+), 2325(23/2+), and 2405(25/2+) has been identified. By using a somewhat unusual set of parameters, we have been able to approach a description for the positive parity states in terms of the triaxial model of Meyer-ter-Vehn.

Abstract The γ decay of 143Ce has been investigated using both a Ge(Li) γ ray and a high resolution iron free double focusing β-ray spectrometer. In addition to γ rays previously reported, more γ rays could be observed. Internal conversion coefficients and multipolarities of γ transitions were determined. Ten excited nuclear energy states have been established in 143Pr at 57, 341, 491, 722, 939, 1045, 1061, 1161, 1382 and 1452 keV. Possible spin values have been assigned to all these states on the basis of conversion coefficients of γ rays. The level structure of 143Pr is discussed in terms of existing nuclear models.
