Rare Earth Nuclei II
- Shintaro Go (RIKEN)
We propose for systematic measurement of low lying states and beta decay half-life of Ho-Yb-Hf isotopes in unknown region N~114-120 to study i) sudden shape change expected in N~114-118 ii) half-life at the edge r-process nuclei near N~120.
The Ho-Hf region is one of the least studied in the nuclear chart, where only lifetime up to N=110 is known in the case of Yb. The region of Yb presents a...
The availability, for higher intense beams at Riken, of a 100 pnA $^{238}$U, in combination with the increased efficiency of the $\gamma$-ray detection array compared to the previous EURICA campaign, opens the way to new experimental studies in the largely unexplored region of neutron-rich rare-earth nuclei. The structure of these nuclei is important from both nuclear astrophysics and nuclear...
