Detailed Spectroscopic Study of the High-Spin Structures in ¹⁶⁸,¹⁶⁹,¹⁷⁰,¹⁷¹W and ¹⁹⁶Hg and a Systematic Examination of Nuclear Structure Behavior of Rare-Earth Isotopes in the A≈160−180 Region
High-spin states in the rare-earth nuclei $^{168, 169, 170, 171}$W (Z=74) were produced via fusion evaporation reactions carried out at Argonne National Laboratory (ANL) using the Argonne Tandem Linear Accelerator System (ATLAS). An...
The question of how do the properties of nuclei evolve with increasing excitation energy and angular momentum is one of the current frontiers in nuclear physics. State of the art $gamma$-ray detector systems have been used to investigate...
The technique of studying nuclear structure under the rigors of high angular momentum through the examination of γ-ray cascades has recently undergone an explosion in productivity. These advances have been brought on primarily by the...
This dissertation presents the results from three major experiments to investigate angular momentum induced structural or shape changes in A~160 and A~110 atomic nuclei. The basic question we are trying to answer is "How do the...
Backbending, Seniority and Pauli Blocking of Pairing Correlations at High Rotational Frequencies in Rapidly Rotating Nuclei: A Systematic Analysis of Er, Yb, Hf and W Isotopes and Nuclear Structure Studies of ¹⁷⁹, ¹⁸⁰W, ¹⁶⁰, ¹⁶¹Gd and ¹⁵⁵Sm
The goal of nuclear structure experiments is to understand how properties of nuclei evolve as a function of key observables such as proton and neutron numbers, deformation, angular momentum and excitation energy, to name a few. In order...
Nuclei in the light rare-earth, for values of N ≥ 90, are textbook examples of the evolution of nuclear structure with respect to excitation energy and angular momentum in deformed nuclei. In the high-spin region (J ≥ 10ħ), effects such...
