Alignment delays in the N = Z nuclei (72)Kr, (76)Sr, and (80)Zr.

چکیده
The ground state rotational bands of the N = Z nuclei (72)Kr, (76)Sr, and (80)Zr have been extended into the angular momentum region where rotation alignment of particles is normally expected. By measuring the moments of inertia of these bands we have observed a consistent increase in the rotational frequency required to start pair breaking, when compared to neighboring nuclei. (72)Kr shows the most marked effect. It has been widely suggested that these "delayed alignments" arise from np-pairing correlations. However, alignment frequencies are very sensitive to shape degrees of freedom and normal pairing, so the new experimental observations are still open to interpretation.

We study static non-axial octupole deformations in proton-rich Z = N nuclei, Ge, Se, Kr, Sr, Zr and Mo, by using the Skyrme Hartree-Fock plus BCS calculation with no restrictions on the nuclear shape. The calculation predicts that the oblate ground state in Se is extremely soft for the Y33 triangular deformation, and that in Zr the low-lying local minimum state coexisting with the prolate groun...
متن کاملGround State Properties of Exotic Nuclei near Z=40 in the Relativistic Mean-field Theory
Study of the ground-state properties of Kr, Sr and Zr isotopes has been performed in the framework of the relativistic mean field (RMF) theory using the recently proposed relativistic parameter set NL-SH. It is shown that the RMF theory provides an unified and excellent description of the binding energies, isotope shifts and deformation properties of nuclei over a large range of isospin in the ...

By performing fully 3D symmetry-unrestricted Skyrme-Hartree-FockBogoliubov calculations, we discuss shape coexistence and possibility of exotic deformations simultaneously breaking the reflection and axial symmetries in proton-rich N = Z nuclei: Ge, Se, Kr, Sr, Zr and Mo. Results of calculation indicate that the oblate ground state of Se is extremely soft against the Y33 triangular deformation,...

متن کاملDiscovery of ^{72}Rb: A Nuclear Sandbank Beyond the Proton Drip Line.
In this Letter, the observation of two previously unknown isotopes is presented for the first time: ^{72}Rb with 14 observed events and ^{77}Zr with one observed event. From the nonobservation of the less proton-rich nucleus ^{73}Rb, we derive an upper limit for the ground-state half-life of 81 ns, consistent with the previous upper limit of 30 ns. For ^{72}Rb, we have measured a half-life of 1...
