AGATA (Advanced Gamma-ray Tracking Array, www.agata.org) is the European forefront instrument for high-resolution γ-ray spectroscopy based on high-purity segmented germanium detectors. Thanks to its fine segmentation, digital data acquisition electronics and pulse-shape analysis techniques, AGATA can track the path of a gamma ray inside the spectrometer to reconstruct its emission angle as...
The lifetimes of nuclear excited states are directly related to electromagnetic transition probabilities
and their determination has strong impacts on our understanding of nuclear structure and of a
variety of astrophysical scenarios.
At the Legnaro National Laboratories of INFN in the last 2 years an extensive experimental
campaign has been carried out with the γ-ray tracking array AGATA [1]...
The investigation of neutron-rich nuclei situated below $^{208}$Pb is anticipated to unveil a spectrum of phenomena, from shape evolution to the existence of exotic shapes and co-existence, which manifest from nuclear interaction. Additionally, nuclides' vicinity to the N=126 shell closure is linked to understanding the r-process path towards actinides. Although its importance is well...
In this talk, we will discuss some aspects of the structure of neutron-rich F nuclei within the framework of the particle plus rotor model. Specifically, the low-lying structure of 25,27,29F can be understood in the rotation-aligned coupling scheme with their 5/2+ ground states as the bandhead of a decoupled band [1,2].
The excitation energies of the 1/2+ and 9/2+ states correlate strongly...
